Is the probability of ectopic pregnancy high?

The probability of ectopic pregnancy is generally not high. If there is no adhesion or blockage of the fallopian tube, the chance of ectopic pregnancy is not high, accounting for about 1% of pregnancy.

Under normal circumstances, if there is no adhesion or blockage in the fallopian tube, after intercourse, the fertilized egg can travel from the unobstructed fallopian tube to implant in the uterine cavity, and the probability of ectopic pregnancy is generally not high. If there has been a history of ectopic pregnancy, the probability of ectopic pregnancy in the next pregnancy is relatively high. If there is gynecological inflammation such as salpingitis and adnexitis, the probability of ectopic pregnancy is higher than that of normal women. In addition, some women have a history of intrauterine operation, such as abortion, curettage, etc., which caused endometrial damage and retrograde infection, and ectopic pregnancy may occur in the next pregnancy.

Ectopic pregnancy is relatively dangerous, and there is a possibility of rupture and heavy bleeding, which may endanger the life of the mother. For women with a history of ectopic pregnancy or gynecological inflammatory diseases, it is recommended that they undergo a comprehensive examination to understand whether the fallopian tubes are unobstructed, so that it is safer to get pregnant again.
