Patient's question:
These days, I've been working at the hospital. In the gynecology department, I encounter ectopic pregnancies with severe bleeding almost every day. I want to ask why ectopic pregnancies are becoming more common?Doctor's answer:
The incidence of ectopic pregnancy is gradually increasing, which is mainly related to gynecological inflammation in daily life. Most gynecological inflammation is caused by frequent uterine operations, such as miscarriage, induced abortion, IUD removal, and IUD insertion. Due to these uterine operations, gynecological inflammation is often likely to recur. If gynecological inflammation is not treated promptly or not treated thoroughly, it can easily lead to fallopian tube blockage, thereby significantly increasing the incidence of ectopic pregnancy.
