Under what circumstances is ectopic pregnancy more likely to occur?

Patient's question:

Under what circumstances is it likely to occur again? If the fallopian tube is blocked, is the probability of ectopic pregnancy higher? Is it possible that the fallopian tube irrigation may cause mental trauma to the fallopian tube? What kind of mental trauma will it cause? Thank you

Doctor's answer:

Hello: The main reasons for the recurrence of ectopic pregnancy are as follows: (1) Chronic tubal inflammation causes adhesions in the tubal lining, leading to narrowed lumen, weakened tube wall movement, allowing the egg to enter the fallopian tube for fertilization, while the fertilized egg cannot reach the uterine cavity. (2) Fallopian tube developmental abnormalities, endometriosis, and reconnection after induced abortion obstruct the movement of the fertilized egg, causing it to stay in the fallopian tube for implantation and growth. (3) Pelvic tumors suppress or pull, causing the fallopian tube to shift or deform, obstructing the passage of the fertilized egg.
