Frequency of ectopic pregnancies remained unchanged in the period under study and only the percentage of women with previous EP was associated with frequency of EP.

A first post-COC cycle within the 26-32-day range did not predict a second cycle within range. Women discontinuing COC should not start using the SDM in their first or second post-COC cycle, even if the first cycle falls within the stated range. Instead, they should use a backup method until they meet the necessary eligibility criteria.
