Causes and complications of ectopic pregnancy.

The reasons for this pathology lie in:

• abnormal structure of the fallopian tubes;

• inflammation of the genitourinary organs;

• violation in the hormonal sphere;

• previous abortions, curettage, miscarriages, complications of which are adhesions and obstruction of the tubes;

• violations in the transmission of nerve impulses in the tissues of the tubes;

• chronic diseases of the pelvic organs;

• prolonged use of the intrauterine device as a contraceptive;

• adhesions, synechiae;

• frequent douching;

• polycystic ovaries.


Such a pathology can be provoked by the in vitro fertilization procedure and any other interventions in the internal organs of women.


Complications can be:

• heavy bleeding;

• rupture of the fallopian tube;

• removal of the fallopian tube, after which it is very difficult to get pregnant;

• hysterectomy;

• repeated pregnancies can also be ectopic.


It is very important to consult a doctor in time, who will send you for an ultrasound examination and determine the location of the fetal egg.
