Patient's question:
On July 24, 2012, I had a laparoscopic surgery for ectopic pregnancy and then underwent contrast imaging. However, after the doctor at the perinatal assistance center reviewed the results, they said that contrast imaging was unnecessary and that the chances of natural conception were unlikely. They recommended doing a culture dish test instead. Later, I consulted another gynecologist who advised me to have contrast imaging again. Now, I'm in a hurry because I don't have any children yet and I'm already [age]. What should I do? I've heard there's a method called "interstitial seed input" that can restore the fallopian tubes, but I still want to conceive naturally. I've also heard that the success rate of the culture dish test isn't very high. After all, I only have one fallopian tube left, and I don't know what to do now. Yesterday, I visited a gynecologist who told me I have pelvic inflammatory disease and that treatment is needed.Doctor's answer:
It is recommended that you promptly undergo ectopic pregnancy management, as even with natural delivery, it could still be an ectopic pregnancy. Wasting time back and forth is indeed futile, and there is certainly not enough energy and strength to wait for the possibility of natural delivery, which is highly unlikely. If you have the time, consider IVF (in vitro fertilization). Additionally, surgical treatment for ectopic pregnancy can incur significant costs. It is advisable to weigh the pros and cons.The daily treatment for ectopic pregnancy primarily involves medication. Patients can take oral medications and supplement them with vitamins, while also maintaining a regular schedule and avoiding alcohol. We hope that ectopic pregnancy patients can recover quickly! Thank you!
