Women who have had an ectopic pregnancy need to pay attention to what when getting pregnant again

Patient's question:

Hello, can I use skincare products when I am pregnant? I also want to ask what I should pay attention to in my situation. My condition is quite complex. I had a molar pregnancy in 2008 and underwent chemotherapy twice. Two years later, I got pregnant again but then had an ectopic pregnancy. Now, two more years have passed, and during that time, I have been breastfeeding. During the ectopic pregnancy surgery, the doctor found that both of my fallopian tubes were blocked and decided to clear them during the surgery. However, the doctor said that my chances of getting pregnant again depend on my own physical condition. She mentioned that women who have had ectopic pregnancies have a 50% higher chance of getting pregnant again with ectopic pregnancy compared to the general population. Even after two years, I still want to get pregnant, but I still feel very sad... What should I pay attention to when I am pregnant in my situation?

Doctor's answer:

According to your description, it is necessary to have a clear prenatal check-up to carefully examine the patency of the fallopian tubes. Additionally, it is best to avoid using skincare products during this stage to prevent harmful substances in skincare products from harming the fetus. It is recommended that you maintain a positive attitude and have regular prenatal check-ups to carefully observe the fetal position and growth and development status. The chance of ectopic pregnancy occurring again is not very high, so you do not need to worry too much. Wishing you good health and an early delivery of your baby. The daily treatment for ectopic pregnancy patients mainly involves symptomatic treatment. Patients can take some oral medications, supplemented with vitamins, and pay attention to self-care, proper diet, and avoid cold foods.
