How many months do you have to wait to do a frozen embryo transfer after taking two shots of methotrexate to treat an ectopic pregnacy? ?

Waiting...: Your doctor will be able to tell you after the ectopic pregnancy resolves and he has the blood tests and ultrasound images to proceed with confidence. Good luck !
