Can an ectopic pregnancy affect menstruation and subsequent menopause?
There is no evidence that an ectopic pregnancy affects menstrual periods or changes the timing of menopause. However, women often report an irregularity in their cycle following an ectopic pregnancy and, if it was necessary to undertake surgery on the ovary or remove one of the ovaries, this can result in menopause developing slightly earlier. However, the impact does not appear to be significant.
