No: Good news, ectopic pregnancy is not in any way inherited. If you have regular periods and you are fairly sure of your last one, i suggest relax and see if the next period comes in 2 days. If you are worried, i always recommend calling your doctor is the best plan of action.

Hi, I underwent ectopic pregnancy surgery around 50 days ago (Aug 5th). The tube was retained since it was unruptured. After that I had a little bleeding for almost 10 days. When to expect my next period, it's almost 50 days.
