Patient's question:
I am currently breastfeeding, but I didn't take proper contraceptive measures, which led to another accidental pregnancy. It wasn't until I had an examination at the hospital that I discovered I actually had an ectopic pregnancy. Can I still focus on breastfeeding?Doctor's answer:
Breastfeeding women have a certain possibility of getting pregnant, so women who are not planning to breastfeed must take proper contraceptive measures. If a woman who does not wish to breastfeed experiences an ectopic pregnancy again, it is necessary to promptly perform an ectopic pregnancy resolution. After the procedure, it is best to wait for about 12 hours after the anesthetic medication wears off before considering breastfeeding to prevent any interference with the baby's health. Wishing the patient a speedy recovery!
