Does methotrexate treatment for ectopic pregnancy influence the patient's performance during a subsequent in vitro fertilization/embryo transfer cycle?
Abstract
In a study on the influence of methotrexate (MTX) treatment on ovarian stimulation characteristics during the subsequent IVF cycle, 14 patients admitted to our department with the diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy and successfully treated with MTX were evaluated. No differences were observed in ovarian stimulation characteristics between the IVF cycle that had resulted in the ectopic pregnancy and the IVF cycle that followed MTX treatment. Treating ectopic pregnancy with MTX has no influence on patients' performance in the following IVF cycle.
