Why does ectopic pregnancy occur?

Patient's question:

Recently, I've been feeling nauseous and vomiting, thinking I might be pregnant. I went to the hospital for a thorough check-up and was told it was an ectopic pregnancy. Why does ectopic pregnancy occur?

Doctor's answer:

The main causes of ectopic pregnancy are fallopian tube cysts, fallopian tube inflammation, fallopian tube malformations, or fallopian tube blockages, etc. Further examinations such as ultrasound and fallopian tube are needed to identify the specific cause. Once the cause is determined, symptomatic treatment can be administered. Before the next attempt at conception, it is recommended to undergo a comprehensive and thorough examination, such as ultrasound, routine vaginal discharge tests, mycoplasma, chlamydia, and colposcopy, etc. Pay attention to external genital hygiene to prevent or alleviate inflammation.
