From the title it is clear that the pregnancy develops outside the uterus.Then where ?!Ideally, after fertilization, the egg is fixed in the cavity of the uterus and develops further.But for various reasons, the egg could gain a foothold in the ovary or fallopian tube.In medicine, there are examples of an ectopic pregnancy, which develops in the abdominal cavity.Of course, for such a case should be pathological conditions.Just want to say that ectopic pregnancies occur only 1-1.5% of pregnant women.
Unambiguous causes of ectopic pregnancy does not.It may be preceded by a variety of reproductive tract infections or bladder inflammation, hormonal failure or pathology in the development of sexual organs.In most cases, abnormal pregnancy develops after the abortion.Physiological characteristics of internal organs particular women can also cause ectopic pregnancy.
The ectopic pregnancy is dangerous for a woman and how to determine ectopic pregnancy in the early stages?None of the organs of the human body is not designed to bear a child, other than the uterus increases in size along with the child.It is clear that the fertilized egg, to gain a foothold in the fallopian tubes or ovaries, over time, it will grow to a size much larger than these bodies, and will lead to an inevitable break them.
How to identify an ectopic pregnancy in the early stages?The most informative and safe method - is ultrasonography (ultrasound), but it is not always informative because of the structural features of the female internal organs Blood clots or fluid accumulation in the US may be similar to the ovum.From this it may be erroneously diagnosed as a normal pregnancy.Many of the symptoms of ectopic pregnancy are similar to those that occur in normal pregnancy.It later appeared sharp pain in the abdomen (lower part as during menstruation), pale skin.Possible fainting, bleeding, weak heartbeat - these are the first signs of an ectopic pregnancy in the early stages.Some pharmaceutical companies produce test for ectopic pregnancy.Its principle of operation is based on measurement of the pregnancy hormone hCG (human chorionic gonadotropin).During normal pregnancy hormone that number is growing rapidly.The slow growth of hCG may indicate the development of an ectopic pregnancy.When hCG levels above 1800 IU / L embryo is readily determined by ultrasound in the uterus.If such indicators in the uterus was not found, then most likely, the pregnancy develops outside the uterus.
Laparoscopy - this is the most informative and accurate method for deciding how to define an ectopic pregnancy in the early stages.This procedure doctors can recommend in particularly difficult cases.In fact, this is a small operation.Doctor making a small incision with the help of optical equipment studies fallopian tubes or ovaries.Laparoscopy allows you to take action, even when you can save the fallopian tube or ovary, in the case of ectopic pregnancy is considered to be a priority.
