Patient's question:
My wife had a case of ectopic pregnancy in March 2004? At that time, the surgery was performed promptly and both fallopian tubes were saved? The doctor said the cause of the disease was due to uterine inflammation at the time of conception? Now we want to have a baby, but we are very afraid of getting another ectopic pregnancy? On December 27, we went to the hospital for an ultrasound and a routine vaginal discharge test? The results showed no problems? The outpatient doctor said that further testing, such as a fallopian tube patency test, was needed? At that time, since my wife was about to have her period, the doctor said it would be necessary to wait 3 days after her period ended before the test could be performed? Additionally, the doctor prescribed a medication called Dualazide, which is an anti-inflammatory drug inserted into the vagina? It was said to be necessary for the fallopian tube patency test beforeDoctor's answer:
If you are planning to get pregnant again but have not identified and eliminated the cause of your previous ectopic pregnancy, the risk of ectopic pregnancy in this pregnancy will be higher than that of women in general.Therefore, women who are prone to ectopic pregnancy must pay attention to the following points:
① If you confirm pregnancy, it is best to have a comprehensive early pregnancy check-up at the hospital within six weeks after your period;
② During the fertile period, if you experience a brief period of missed menstruation followed by unexplained mild pain or discomfort on one side of the lower abdomen, you should be highly alert to the possibility of ectopic pregnancy;
③ If, shortly after your period, you discharge membrane-like sheet-like or tubular substances from your vagina, which float in water with a granular surface and no floating villous structure, it indicates that ectopic pregnancy has occurred, but the embryo sac has already been damaged and miscarried. In this case, you should seek further medical treatment at the hospital.
