Many people know what ectopic pregnancy is, but in reality, their understanding of it is not deep. They only know that having ectopic pregnancy in women is a very dangerous situation. And for ectopic pregnancy, surgical treatment is usually adopted. So, what are the reasons for ectopic pregnancy in women?
Female ectopic pregnancy may be caused by damage to the fallopian tubes. If a woman experiences salpingitis or perisalpingitis, it can lead to tubal pregnancy. Tubal mucosal inflammation can cause complete blockage of the fallopian tube lumen, while perisalpingitis causes adhesions around the fallopian tube, slowing down the peristalsis of the fallopian tube wall muscles and hindering the movement of fertilized eggs.
If a woman has had a previous tubal pregnancy, her chances of developing an ectopic pregnancy in the future will be greatly increased. Secondly, placing an intrauterine device (IUD) in a woman's body can cause the fertilized egg to implant outside the uterine cavity and result in ectopic pregnancy when contraception fails. If a woman suffers from uterine fibroids or ovarian tumors, it can affect the patency of the fallopian tube lumen, which is not conducive to the implantation of fertilized eggs.
Multiple abortions in women can damage the endometrium, which is not conducive to embryo implantation in the uterine cavity and greatly increases the risk of ectopic pregnancy. So women should take care of their bodies in daily life, take contraceptive measures when they don't want to get pregnant, and avoid undergoing abortion surgery. If an abortion is performed, women also need to take good care of their bodies to restore their health as soon as possible and reduce the risk of ectopic pregnancy.
