About this trial

Detect the effect of different treatment modalities of tubal ectopic pregnancy on ovarian reserve

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

The study will include patients aged 18-44 years with known diagnosis or suspicion of diagnosis of tubal ectopic pregnancy (abnormal doubling rates of their b-HCG levels as well as ultrasonographically identified or unidentified gestational sacs outside the uterus)

Included patients must have capacity to provide informed consent. Given the potential emergent nature of presentation, women will not be recruited if fully informed consent could be compromised due to a highly distressed emotional state or significant hemorrhage necessitating the need for urgent surgery

Disqualifiers

The use of hormonal contraceptives within two months of enrolment

If other surgery was conducted at the time of salpingectomy.

If a woman was pregnant at follow up visit for AMH measurement

History of previous surgeries of fallopian tubes and/or ovaries
