Patient's question:
I'm not sure if I'm pregnant either. My period hasn't come for a while, and the bleeding has become irregular, with dark-colored blood. I also often feel pain in my lower abdomen. Could this be an ectopic pregnancy? If so, what is the best way to treat ectopic pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
Hello, common reasons include:1. Chronic tubal inflammation Chronic tubal inflammation can cause adhesion of the tubal mucosal folds, leading to narrowed lumen, mucosal destruction, residual cilia on the epithelium, adhesion around the fallopian tubes, and complete distortion of the tubal shape. These conditions interfere with the normal movement and passage of the fertilized egg in the fallopian tubes, making them the main cause of ectopic pregnancy.
2. Abnormal development or function of the fallopian tubes Abnormal development of the fallopian tubes, such as excessively long tubes, poor muscle layer development, absence of mucosal cilia, double fallopian tubes, or additional fimbriae, etc.
