What is the likelihood of having an ectopic pregnancy?

Patient's question:

On January 8, 2018, I underwent an ectopic pregnancy laparoscopic surgery, where the right fallopian tube was incised and cleaned. This was my first pregnancy. Hello, can this fallopian tube still be used? What tests should I undergo for follow-up? Is the possibility of having another ectopic pregnancy likely to be high?

Doctor's answer:

According to the situation you described, your ectopic pregnancy surgery may be an "incision." It is recommended that you relax your mind. After the incision surgery, in addition to the function of the fallopian tube, it may only increase the chance of ectopic pregnancy. If you need to have a thorough examination of the fallopian tube, you can have an angiography. The fallopian tubes are bilateral, so after surgery on one side, there is no need to worry too much about the other side. There are many treatments for ectopic pregnancy, but because the symptoms of the patients are different, the treatment methods used are also different. Therefore, it is necessary for the patient to be diagnosed as soon as possible so that the right treatment can be given.
