Summary

This study reviews medical records of 230 women treated with methotrexate for ectopic pregnancy, focusing on those with conditions that usually make this drug risky, like kidney or liver problems. Researchers will check how well the treatment worked by measuring pregnancy hormone levels and whether surgery was needed. The goal is to gather real-world data to help doctors make better decisions for similar patients in the future.
