TTC after Ectopic?

Has anyone got any experience in TTC after an ectopic?
I found out on the 23rd of November 2021 I was pregnant - finally - and eventually with a sticky baby. I had some bleeding a week after AF was due but it only lasted 3 days. My betas rose sub-optimally and ultrasounds showed nothing concerning, nothing was seen or visible.
Eventually I ended up with the diagnosis of an Ectopic and was given Methotrexate on the 30th of December 2021 to end the pregnancy, before a rupture happened. As the world celebrated the holidays, I was enduring the worst thing I have been through.
Methotrexate depletes your bodies folate levels which is harmful to TTC straight away. If you have one shot (I did) then you can't TTC for 3 months. I am currently 12DPO of my first real cycle since. AF is due today and we have been given the all clear to proceed, I have worked incredibly hard to eat the right things and get my folate levels back to where they were.
Just wanting to make friends with people who have been through similar, how long did it take you to TTC after your ectopic, how did you manage and cope?
Thanks in advance, Baby Dust to all.
