have you done the hsg test after your surgery to see how the tubes are operating and if they are open? I had an ectopic pregnancy and that was the first test my dr ordered after my numbers went back down to zero. The test showed some adhesions where the pregnancy was outside my tubes, but other than that it was clear. Also, the test can clear out debris and mucas, making it less likely for an ectopic again (if they are in fact clear). I did fall preggo again after the test. I am now a bit over 8 weeks along and not feeling the horrible pain of another ectopic.

Best of luck!

"Usually" a women doesn't experience more than one ectopic pregnancy .  If she does that can indicate there is a medical reason for this to have occurred which can mean it can happen again (scarring or blockage in tube).  What did your dr say?

A women only needs one functioning tube to get pregnant.  Sometimes it will take longer to fall pregnant though.
