What tests should be done after ectopic pregnancy surgery if you want to have children?

Patient's question:

What tests do I need to take three months after an ectopic pregnancy surgery if I want to have children? Now, what tests are needed when planning to have children? My friend said that those who have had ectopic pregnancy surgery for three months must undergo thorough testing, and it needs to be comprehensive. I'm not sure if this is necessary.

Doctor's answer:

Ectopic pregnancy refers to the implantation and growth of a fertilized egg outside the uterine cavity. The main causes include chronic tubal inflammation, abnormal development of fallopian tube function, oocyte migration, and so on. If you have had an ectopic pregnancy surgery, one of your fallopian tubes may have been removed, leaving only the other side. This could increase your chances of pregnancy by half. If you have chronic tubal inflammation, there may be a risk of another ectopic pregnancy. It is recommended that you undergo a thorough examination and treat the inflammation before trying to conceive again.
