Ectopic pregnancy is a serious problem that may occur during female fertility. Once an ectopic pregnancy occurs, immediate surgical measures need to be taken to remove the embryo from the ectopic pregnancy. If not treated in a timely manner, it may cause the growing embryo to rupture the pregnancy site, resulting in serious consequences. So, what are the consequences of ectopic pregnancy?
1. Bleeding
After suffering from ectopic pregnancy, women need to take timely abortion measures. If a complete abortion results in less bleeding, and if it is an incomplete abortion, some tissues may exist in the fallopian tubes, which may cause nourishing cells to continue to penetrate the fallopian tube wall, resulting in repeated bleeding or even a lot of bleeding.
2. Tubal rupture
The vast majority of ectopic pregnancies occur inside the fallopian tubes. If detected later, the fallopian tubes are easily ruptured by the embryo, resulting in tube rupture. If small arteries are injured, rapid bleeding can occur. If diagnosis and treatment are not timely enough, it can easily lead to shock and even death of the pregnant woman. Although there are not many cases of death at present, they are not without them.
3. Life-threatening situation
More than 30% of pregnant women with ectopic pregnancy may experience shock or life-threatening situations, and the severity of shock is closely related to bleeding. Once the embryo ruptures the fallopian tube, a large amount of abdominal bleeding will quickly occur. If not rescued in a timely manner, it can easily lead to life-threatening situations.
In summary, the risk of ectopic pregnancy is very high. It is advisable to detect and treat it early, otherwise, if there is a large amount of bleeding, the consequences may be particularly serious.
