A member asked:
How long does it take for retained tissue after an ectopic miscarriage?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Retained tissue?: An ectopic pregnancy is a pregnancy that has implanted in the fallopian tube, not in the uterus. These are usually treated with a medication called Methotrexate or surgery. There is no retained tissue within the uterus, if that is what you mean. If treated with methotrexate, HCG levels are followed to zero, and women should not get pregnant for about 4-6 months.
