      <i_freetext>Intervention 1: In the first group (single dose), we will administer 50 mg/m2 methotrexate IM on day 1, the serum day 4 and 7 β–hCG will be compared. If there is a drop of 15%, the treatment is considered effective, if not the next doses of methotrexate are administered on day 7,and again on day 11 if not effective with the same rule. If there is not a drop of 15% of β–hCG on day 14 in comparision to day 11, the drug therapy is failed and the patient will be operated. Intervention 2: In the second group (double dose), we will administer 50 mg/m2 methotrexate IM on day 1 and 4, the serum day 4 and 7 β–hCG will be compared. If there is a drop of 15%, the treatment is considered effective, if not the next doses of methotrexate are administered on day 7,and again on day 11 if not effective with the same rule.  If there is not a drop of 15% of β–hCG on day 14 in comparision to day 11, the drug therapy is failed and the patient will be operated.</i_freetext>
