Scar ectopic pregnancy had a d&c is it ok to try again after 2 normal periods never had a miscarrige before, can this happen again?

Specializes in surgery

Yes&yes: One can have normal pregnancy after ectopic and d&c. Somewhat higher risk for another ectopic no specific guideline for the wait interval but several months seems reasonable-since not all attempts are fruitful.
