Type of treatments available for ectopic pregnancy

We shall continue to talk about type of treatments available for ectopic pregnancy and chance of future pregnancy today.

Depending on how far an ectopic pregnancy has developed, treatment can be surgical and non surgical.

Methotrexate may be given, to allow the body to absorb the pregnancy tissue. If the fallopian tube has become stretched or has ruptured and began bleeding. Bleeding will have to be stopped promptly and emergency surgery is required. The involved fallopian tube would be partially or completely removed.

If the whole fallopian tube has been removed, your chance of future pregnancy, will be very reduced.

Rupture with internal bleeding, which leads to shock is the most common complication of ectopic pregnancy. If emergency medical care is given, death is very rare in modern facilities. About 10-15% of women, who had had ectopic pregnancy, experience infertility.
