What do you recommend if i had an ectopic.should i take a pregnancy test?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: If you have had an ectopic pregnancy in the past, you should do a home pregnancy test whenever you miss a period, unless you are on birth control. You have some risk of another ectopic so if you do become pregnant, you need to see your doc right away.
