Ectopic pregnancy, medically known as ectopic pregnancy, refers to the development of a fertilized egg outside the uterine cavity by certain factors, such as the fallopian tube, uterine horn, abdominal cavity, ovaries, etc. It is prone to haemorrhage and can lead to shock or even life-threatening if not sent to the doctor in time. Therefore, women must be alert and pay attention to early identification. 1. Menopause. Most patients have a brief history of menopause before ectopic pregnancy occurs, along with early pregnancy reaction, such as nausea and vomiting, etc. Pregnancy test may be positive. 2. Vaginal bleeding. After the embryo dies, there is often irregular vaginal bleeding, mostly in the form of drops, dark brown, small amount, usually not more than the amount of menstruation, and dripping. 3.Pale face. Short-term bloodless face, pale as paper, accompanied by dry mouth, palpitations, fear of cold, weakness. 4. Abdominal pain. The incidence is 95%. The abdominal pain is caused by a variety of factors such as tubal expansion, rupture and blood stimulation of the peritoneum, often with sudden onset of tearing-like or paroxysmal pain on one side of the lower abdomen, accompanied by nausea and vomiting. 5. Syncope and shock. Due to acute bleeding in the abdominal cavity, it can cause blood volume reduction and severe abdominal pain, often syncope in mild cases, and shock in severe cases. 6. Diarrhea. Patients with ectopic pregnancy may also have diarrhea symptoms, which can easily be considered as indigestion or intestinal emergency if the condition is not carefully analyzed. How to treat ectopic pregnancy 1.Surgical treatment The main means of this treatment is open surgery or laparoscopic surgery, which is mostly used for dealing with dangerous situations, first aid and so on. When the patient is in emergency shock, hemorrhage and other symptoms, surgery is needed to save the patient’s life, and the decision to remove the fallopian tube is based on the patient’s condition and the requirement of fertility. If the patient’s condition is stable and the embryo is not too large, the embryo and some tissues can be removed through minimally invasive laparoscopic surgery, and then the decision to remove or not to remove the fallopian tubes can be made based on the specific circumstances of the surgery. 2. Non-surgical treatment Non-surgical treatment includes chemotherapy, Chinese herbal medicine, interventional treatment and so on, which may cause more harm to the body. How to prevent ectopic pregnancy 1. First of all, we must look for the root cause of the problem. Don’t have an unclean sex life, don’t have abortions often, and actively prevent tubal inflammation are the most basic preventive measures. For the various pathologies of the reproductive system to be detected and treated early, do not feel ashamed to go to the hospital because it is an unspeakable problem, so as not to leave any lifelong regrets. 2, “high-risk” people to actively prevent. If a woman has had surgery on her fallopian tubes, she should consult a doctor during her pregnancy preparation and try to get pregnant under her supervision and guidance. In the case of women who have had an IUD, regular visits to the hospital should be made to check for inflammation or other reproductive disorders. For an ectopic pregnancy, it is best if you can prevent it before it happens. Such damage is too much for anyone to bear, so try not to give it any chance to sprout.
