Answer: No, an ectopic pregnancy cannot move or be moved to the uterus.

Step-by-step explanation:

An ectopic pregnancy cannot move at all and always requires treatment. If there is no treatment the Fallopian tube will rupture, normally between 6-26 weeks causing a life threatening hemorrhage. When the Fallopian tube ruptures the fetus will die and the mother is at very high risk due to the hemorrhage.
