Is it dangerous to have an ectopic pregnancy?

Ectopic pregnancy is also called ectopic pregnancy. It is a disease that poses a great threat to the mother's life. Tubal adhesions and tubal inflammation are common causes of ectopic pregnancy. The onset of ectopic pregnancy will directly endanger women's health. So, what are the hazards of ectopic pregnancy to human health?

Abdominal pain: The patient has a heavy or severe pain in the lower abdomen, a feeling of defecation, and often cold sweats. If the affected area ruptures, the patient will suddenly feel a tearing pain in one side of the lower abdomen, accompanied by nausea and vomiting.

Amenorrhea: The early symptoms of ectopic pregnancy can easily be confused with normal early pregnancy reactions. If a pregnant woman experiences amenorrhea and early pregnancy reactions within a short period of time, and sometimes also has bloating and pain in the lower abdomen on one side, and examination reveals that the fallopian tube is normal and enlarged, ectopic pregnancy should be suspected.

Vaginal bleeding: Patients with ectopic pregnancy will have symptoms of vaginal bleeding. It should be noted that ectopic pregnancy bleeding is irregular vaginal bleeding that occurs after the death of the embryo. It is dark brown in color and small in amount, generally not exceeding the amount of menstruation. Bleeding is often accompanied by the discharge of decidual casts or decidual fragments. When the lesion is eliminated, the bleeding can stop completely. Bleeding during menstruation is the discharge of no decidual tissue.

Syncope and shock: Many patients may suffer from decreased blood volume or severe abdominal pain due to acute intra-abdominal bleeding. Mild cases may experience syncope, while severe cases may suffer from shock, which is life-threatening.

Other symptoms: Patients with ectopic pregnancy may also experience nausea, vomiting, frequent urination, etc. Some patients may go into shock due to heavy bleeding, become pale, and have low blood pressure.
