Can a woman with ectopic pregnancy get pregnant again?

Patient's question:

Doctor, I have had one medication abortion and one miscarriage. During the surgery for the ectopic pregnancy on the left ovary, the left ovary was preserved. After the surgery, I had a tubal flushing, which was normal. I have been trying to conceive for two months without success. Doctor, can I still get pregnant? Will the left ovary go through menopause?

Doctor's answer:

Ectopic pregnancy refers to the implantation of a fertilized egg outside the endometrium, including fallopian tube pregnancy, ovarian pregnancy, cervical pregnancy, and abdominal pregnancy. Fallopian tube pregnancy is the most common type. In general, ectopic pregnancy can first be treated conservatively. Ectopic pregnancy usually does not respond to abortion drugs, and chemotherapy drugs such as methotrexate are recommended. The mechanism of action is to promote fibrosis of cell tissue, destroy the villi, and cause the embryonic tissue to necrose and shed, thereby avoiding surgery. If the treatment is not successful, surgical treatment must be implemented promptly to prevent rupture and severe bleeding.
