From what I have read, it is usually around 6 weeks. If you have signs and symptoms of ectopic pregnancy, you should get to the hospital as soon as possible because it can be life threatening. Here is a website that tells you about the symptoms and explains everything.

How can an ectopic pregnancy occur?
An ectopic pregnancy is when the fertilized egg stays in the Fallopian tube instead of moving into the uterus. As it grows it can rupture the tube and cause serious bleeding so it is a medical emergency. Past infections or other narrowings of the tube can be a cause. Usually no cause is identified.
What is it called when a fertilized egg grows in the fallopian tube rather than the uterus?
A pregnancy in which the zygote implants in the fallopian tube abdomen ovary or the cervix is called an Ectopic pregnancy.

What causes an ectopic pregnancy?
It is really unknown at the time about what causes an ectopic pregnancy.
Can an ectopic pregnancy be successful?
The fallopian tube in which the embryo is located will burst when the growing embryo reaches a size which can no longer be contained. Parts of the patients will get the tubal blockage after the ectopic pregnancy treatment, so we would ask if it has a direct relationship with the ectopic pregnancy. If you have problems with tubal blockage, fuyan pill may help.
What happens when the zygote does not attach to the uterine wall?
If a zygote attaches to the wall of the fallopian tube it is called an ectopic pregnancy. If it continues to grow, it will cause the tube to rupture and the mother to hemorrhage. If left untreated this can lead to death. Ectopic pregnancies have to be terminated because they are never viable and can be life threatening to the mother.
Could a ectopic pregnancy occur in a Fallopian tube?
Yes.
Can you conceive n same tube as you had ectopic pregnancy on?
It would depend if the tube was repaired or not. If you feel that you may have an ectopic pregnancy you should see your Dr or go to the ER right away.
How long do you bleed for after an ectopic pregnancy and tube removal?
I had an ectopic pregnancy and had my tube removed two weeks ago, I bled lightly for two days, I guess it differs from woman to woman.
What is done when you have a ectopic pregnancy?
Well there are usually a small handful of possibilities that comes to treating an ectopic pregnancy. One, the ectopic pregnancy dies and the mothers body reabsorbs the egg and at times is never even detected and the woman might have never even known she was pregnant. If you encountered a positive pregnancy test then a later did another one and it came back negative, that could have been a possibility that it was an ectopic pregnancy. Or the other possibility with an ectopic pregnancy is that the tube that is holding the ectopic pregnancy may rupture causing severe abdominal pain and may cause extreme complications and surgery may be needed. If the ectopic pregnancy is detected by a physician, then he/she may prescribe a drug called methotrexate, which is injected into a muscles and ends the pregnancy. If the embryo is small enough doctors can remove the embryo through laparoscopic surgery and can usually save the tube. In this situation, a general anesthetic will be used and you will need to take about a week to recover. * http://www.multikulti.org.uk/en/health/ectopic-pregnancy/ * http://www.babycenter.com/0_ectopic-pregnancy_229.bc?articleId=229&page=4 * http://www.medinfo2004.org/get-to-know-about-ectopic-pregnancy-174/ You will most likely have to undergo minor surgery to remove the ectopic pregnancy or you can be prescribed medication that will end the pregnancy.
