Is there still a possibility of pregnancy with ectopic pregnancy?

Patient's question:

I just got married to my wife a year ago, and she got pregnant last month. However, after experiencing severe abdominal pain, we discovered it was an ectopic pregnancy. She went to the hospital for conservative treatment, which has now improved. There is no danger to her life, but my friends told me that it's difficult to get pregnant after an ectopic pregnancy. I'm afraid of causing her heavy emotional stress. But besides the possibility of pregnancy, is there anything else related to ectopic pregnancy?

Doctor's answer:

After a woman has an ectopic pregnancy, she can still get pregnant in the future. There's no need to worry about this because if it's an ectopic pregnancy, the gestational sac, even if it's in the fallopian tube, is only located in one fallopian tube. Therefore, the other fallopian tube is still open. As long as one fallopian tube is open, pregnancy is possible in this situation. So, there's no need to worry and don't put too much psychological pressure on yourself.
