After effects from eptopic pregnancy

Hi there- 14 mths ago I had an eptopic pregnancy and had to have my tube removed as the tube had burst, it was an emergancy operation.
My doctor said that I could carry on trying for a baby when i felt ready, and that I would have as much chance as anyone else trying with one tube left. (No luck as yet).
I'm 25yrs old and since then I have had no sex drive, feel very depressed, my body feels very achy and old, and my periods are quite painful. And the past week I have been having pains on my left side above my pelvic area. I have had a period in the last two weeks so I dont believe it is another eptopic and not being so sure on what side my tube was removed im starting to worry that all these problems maybe due to the operation.
Could I have damaged tissue down there or are there any side effects which could arise from this kind operation?
Anyone know what Im talking about please reply.
Thanks, Jenny

Hi. I had an eptopic pregnancy back in febuary mine disapeared naturally after a week or 2 but they found it hard to find in the first place. I had bleeding it my stomach not sure if thats just what happens. I am now having pains aswell seems to be mainly on my left side even up my side a little and sometimes on my right side which is where the eptopic was. I am also back on the pill and  had a period around about the right time after the miscarriage and am not sure why im having weird aches and pains now but nog jyst when ovulating as im having them yodayand in due to have my period in the next 7 days with my pill,there not terrible but im just worried as ive nevrr had this before ive always had irregular periods but am now on the pill for that. Could the pill cause problems? also i think it may be effecting my bowells aswell.

i suffered from a ruptued etopic in november 2009, i lst so much blood and had to have a blood transfusion. the doctor told me i could ry again when i felt ready, 3 months later i fell preggi again and yep it was another ectopic and yep it burst again even tho i was under 2 day care at the hospital they didnt know, because i already had one in my womb and one in my tube. so lost them both, and now have no tubes. every month i get the worse pains in he world doctors say its just scar damage. does anyone know what i can do to ease the pain or at least deal with it better then dosing up in strong pain killers and staying in bed.

I have lost both my fallopian tubes to ectopic pregnancies. I have suffered form extreme ovulation pain and period pain after this happen to me. I also get very tied and my boobs are very tender to touch as well. Its been nearly ten years since my 2 ectopic pregnancies (one after the other) and the pain hasn't got any better. I am now 27, I did IVF about 5 years ago and i hyper-stimulated and couldn't do an embryo transfer. This happen cause they gave me so much hormone drugs and i was so young. I have just come out of hospital as i got my appendix removed, they also found my ovary was stuck to my intestine from the ivf scaring (3 cm long) so I don't no if this had anything to do with the pain. I have had my period since and the pain is still there. Not much luck for me but I'm doing a frozen embryo transfer soon so wish me luck. We now have seven 5 day old embryos so fingers crossed. Good luck to you all.
