Patient's question:
Hello doctor, I have had two ectopic pregnancies. I am very worried now and dare not get pregnant. People say that if you have had ectopic pregnancies before, the chance of having them again is high. I'm afraid it will be ectopic pregnancy again. Hello, if you have had many ectopic pregnancies, will there be any adverse effects? Will it cause infertility?Doctor's answer:
Having had an ectopic pregnancy increases the risk of having another one. Since you have had two ectopic pregnancies, if they occurred on the same side, it could easily lead to blockage of the fallopian tube on that side. If the ectopic pregnancies occurred on different sides, it could easily result in blockage of both fallopian tubes, which may likely cause infertility in the future. It is recommended that you undergo tests such as hysterosalpingography at the hospital before trying to conceive.
