What is the probability of another pregnancy for patients with ectopic pregnancy?

Ectopic pregnancy, which is pregnancy outside the uterus, is referred to as ectopic pregnancy. It can occur in the fallopian tube, ovary, abdominal cavity, cervix, etc. It is a common acute abdomen in gynecology. The most common pregnancy is in the fallopian tube, accounting for about 98%.

For women after ectopic pregnancy, the re-pregnancy rate is 10% to 30%, and 50% to 60% of women are still infertile. This creates problems for families without children. In recent years, it has been discovered that the chemotherapy drug methotrexate can treat stable ectopic pregnancy and lead to another pregnancy. But it must be done under the guidance of a physician.

Secondly, ectopic pregnancy surgery also has the opportunity to preserve the fallopian tube. Tubal pregnancy surgery removes all of the fallopian tubes. Conservative surgery is also possible, that is, only the diseased part is removed and then anastomized, fallopian tube stoma drainage, fallopian tube incision, fallopian tube fimbria reshaping, etc.

Thirdly, in recent years, it has been pioneered to perform fallopian tube pregnancy surgery under the guidance of laparoscopy, but it is technically difficult and requires high equipment.

There are many treatment methods for ectopic pregnancy. The treatment plan can be considered according to the specific condition, lesion location and procedure, as well as technical conditions, etc. The treatment plan cannot be forced to be consistent. Women who hope to get pregnant again should use contraception for a period of time after complete recovery. Only when the doctor approves pregnancy can they cancel contraception to avoid ectopic pregnancy from happening again before the fallopian tube is completely unblocked. The general incidence rate of repeated ectopic pregnancy is 5% to 15%.
