A member asked:
How long can an ectopic pregnancy be carried and taken care of with drugs before surgery is needed?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It depends: The length of time is related to the response seen in blood tests. If the levels show a fall, it may be possible to avoid surgery though it may take weeks.
