Ectopic Pregnancy Prognosis (Expectations)
About 85% of the women who have experienced one ectopic pregnancy are later able to achieve a normal pregnancy. A subsequent ectopic pregnancy may occur in 10 to 20% of cases. Some women fail to become pregnant again, while others become pregnant and spontaneously abort during the first trimester.
The maternal death rate from ectopic pregnancy in the U.S. has decreased in the last 30 years to less than 0.1%.
