Is ectopic pregnancy surgery dangerous?

Patient's question:

I was almost diagnosed with an ectopic pregnancy during my first pregnancy. Is the surgery dangerous? Can I still get pregnant in the future? What should I pay attention to for a healthy pregnancy in the future?

Doctor's answer:

This surgery involves risks, so we must choose a reputable public hospital, as it is safer, and avoid some private hospitals or small clinics. Currently, for patients with stable ectopic pregnancy vital signs, laparoscopic surgery is commonly used to treat ectopic pregnancy. The surgery usually takes about an hour. After the surgery, it is important to prevent wound infection. Sexual activity is not allowed for over a month, and if you want to have children, wait until after six months.
