Does ectopic pregnancy still have periods?

Patient's question:

I'm pregnant, but after a careful check, it was found to be an ectopic pregnancy. Surgery is required, but I've noticed that I've been having some bleeding recently. Does an ectopic pregnancy still have a menstrual period?

Doctor's answer:

For ectopic pregnancy, which is also known as tubal pregnancy, it is generally most likely to recur in the fallopian tube. There is a possibility of re-bleeding in this case. This situation is most likely to occur in early pregnancy miscarriage. If it recurs as an ectopic pregnancy rupture with severe bleeding, it can lead to acute abdomen. In your case, if it is ectopic pregnancy, surgical treatment may be necessary when necessary. Laparoscopic surgery can be used.
