Chances of repeat ectopic pregnancy are high. Causes of ectopic are due to tubal infection which destroys the cilia lining the tube. Tubes once destroyed cannot revert back. Only thing you can do is immediately after missed period confirm the pregnancy by scan whether it is intrauterine or not to avoid complications.
