Follow your doctor: A cervical ectopic is very serious and can result in severe hemorrhaging. Be sure to follow your doctors instructions carefully.

Yes but: Give the Methotrexate some time, it is usually very effective and if not perfect then the procedure will be much easier after the ectopic is made smaller. Good luck, i knew its a rough ride.
