High-risk groups for ectopic pregnancy: 6 types of women need special attention, and the last one must be seen by your husband!

Ectopic pregnancy, this scary-sounding medical term, refers to the fertilized egg implanting and developing outside the uterus, the most common location is the fallopian tube. It poses a serious threat to women's health, especially for certain high-risk groups, and needs to be taken seriously. The following are six types of women who need special attention:

1. Age: Women younger than 20 or older than 35 have a relatively higher risk of ectopic pregnancy due to changes in physiological structure and hormone levels. The reproductive system of young women may not be fully mature, while the fertility of older women decreases and there may be problems with the combination of eggs and fallopian tubes.

2. History of ectopic pregnancy: Women who have had an ectopic pregnancy have a significantly increased risk of having another ectopic pregnancy, which may be related to the abnormal structure of their reproductive system.

3. History of abortion or surgery: Multiple abortions or pelvic surgeries may damage the fallopian tubes, affect the normal operation of the eggs, and increase the chance of ectopic pregnancy.

4. Endometriosis: In patients with endometriosis, the endometrium grows in abnormal places, which may cause the fertilized egg to be unable to reach the uterus normally, thus forming an ectopic pregnancy.

5. Fallopian tube diseases: such as fallopian tube inflammation, water accumulation, blockage, etc., will hinder the normal combination of egg and sperm and increase the risk of ectopic pregnancy.

6. Use contraceptive methods: Women who use intrauterine devices or emergency contraceptives for a long time can effectively prevent pregnancy, but the influence of hormones may affect the normal implantation of the fertilized egg.

The last thing you need to let your husband know is that ectopic pregnancy is not a unilateral problem for women. The support and understanding of your partner is crucial. Men should understand the risks of ectopic pregnancy, actively participate in their partner's health management and contraceptive measures, and jointly safeguard the health and safety of the family. If you find any abnormality in your partner, such as abdominal pain, vaginal bleeding, etc., you should seek medical attention immediately. Early detection and early treatment can effectively reduce the risk of ectopic pregnancy.
