Patient's question:
My wife is currently pregnant, but unfortunately, it was an ectopic pregnancy back then. So, we decided on conservative treatment. I would like to ask you, what are the potential outcomes after conservative treatment for ectopic pregnancy? Does it significantly affect the chances of future pregnancy? What should we pay attention to after undergoing conservative treatment?Doctor's answer:
Hello, the conservative treatment for ectopic pregnancy is relatively long. Depending on each person's drug sensitivity, some may succeed with a single dose of medication, while others may not respond to conservative treatment and may need to undergo further medication or surgical treatment. Even if successful, follow-up HCG level tests are still required, and there is still a possibility of another ectopic pregnancy during subsequent pregnancy attempts. During conservative treatment, it is important to monitor abdominal pain and vaginal bleeding, check HCG irregularly, rest more, and engage in less physical activity. Maintain a light diet.
