What is the situation now that there has been no pregnancy after ectopic pregnancy surgery?

Patient's question:

Hello, I have previously undergone an ectopic pregnancy surgery and have not been able to get pregnant. All the detailed checks have been normal. Now I am planning to have a child. Can I take folic acid? And can I take it during my menstrual period?
History and effectiveness of previous treatment for ectopic pregnancy: None.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, if you are planning to conceive, it is necessary to take oral folic acid tablets now, which can effectively prevent neural tube defects in the fetus. It can also be taken during the menstrual period. However, it is worth noting that due to a previous history of ectopic pregnancy, it is necessary to undergo a tubal contrast examination before the third month of pregnancy to check the patency of the fallopian tubes. Patent fallopian tubes can prevent the recurrence of ectopic pregnancy. It needs to be paid attention to, and good wishes are sent. The recurrence of ectopic pregnancy severely threatens women's health, and patients need to pay attention to treatment during their lives and avoid sexual intercourse. Personal hygiene should also be noted.
