When will menstruation return after ectopic pregnancy surgery?

Patient's question:

Doctor, hello, I have a friend who is 30 years old. She recently had an ectopic pregnancy surgery and has a question she wants to consult with you. Hello, when will her period come after the ectopic pregnancy surgery? She especially needs your clarification and explanation. Thank you!

Doctor's answer:

After undergoing an ectopic pregnancy surgery, the menstrual period may arrive between 2 to 3 months. This is because ectopic pregnancy is still a pregnancy, and after becoming pregnant, it can lead to a pause in menstruation. After the ectopic pregnancy surgery, where the embryo is removed from the body, the pelvic organs will fully recover. Approximately one month later, hormone levels may return to normal, the ovaries will fully restore their previous excretory function, and menstruation can occur normally.
