If you feel something is wrong in the early stages of pregnancy, be sure to consult a doctor.
If the fertilized egg does not die, then it attaches to the wall of the tube (instead of the wall of the uterus) and begins to develop there. But the tube, due to its anatomical structure, is not at all intended for bearing a fetus, because it does not have the ability to stretch to the required size. Already at 7-9 weeks, the embryo will reach such a size that it will simply rupture the tube. This will lead to the development of massive, life-threatening internal bleeding.
If a woman monitors her health, she will turn to specialists for help in time. Tubal pregnancy is clearly visible on ultrasound. The diagnosis allows us to perform laparoscopic surgery (operation through a small hole) without waiting for the pipe to rupture, and thereby preserve women’s health.
If everything goes well, the fertilized egg successfully reaches the uterine cavity. This usually happens 7 days after conception, that is, on days 22-23 of the menstrual cycle. Here begins the last, but no less important stage on the path to the long-awaited pregnancy - implantation (attachment) of the fertilized egg.
