The Aromatase Inhibitor and Gnrh Antagonist Versus Methotrexate for Management of Undisturbed Ectopic Pregnancy
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The aim of this study is to :
-
Use of the aromatase inhibitor( letrozole) for the treatment of ectopic pregnancy compared to methotrexate.
-
Use of the Gnrh antagonist for the treatment of ectopic pregnancy compared to methotrexate.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- determine efficacy of the aromatase inhibitor and Gnrh antagonist to achievement of resolution of ectopic pregnancy determined by serum hCG levels below laboratory immunoassay detection <15 IU/l.Results will be statistically analyzed,then evaluated . [3 months]
