Does ectopic pregnancy require fallopian tube removal?

If there are no abnormal vital signs in an ectopic pregnancy, there is no need to remove the fallopian tube. However, if there are abnormal vital signs, you should cooperate with the doctor for surgery as soon as possible.

Determination of whether ectopic pregnancy requires fallopian tube removal:

Ectopic pregnancy refers to the implantation and development of a fertilized egg outside the uterus. Most ectopic pregnancies occur in the fallopian tube. When an ectopic pregnancy occurs, if the human chorionic gonadotropin in the blood is less than 2000IU/L, imaging tests show that the mass is less than 4cm and the patient has no abnormal vital signs, it is usually not necessary to remove the fallopian tube, and it can be improved through conservative medication under the guidance of a doctor. However, if the human chorionic gonadotropin value is high or rises rapidly, the ectopic pregnancy mass is large, or the patient has a live ectopic pregnancy, if the patient does not cooperate with the doctor in time for treatment, it may lead to serious consequences such as fallopian tube rupture and bleeding. At this time, you should go to the hospital in time to cooperate with the doctor to perform fallopian tube window retrieval or resection treatment to prevent the disease from progressing and posing a threat to life safety.

Things to note about ectopic pregnancy:

Symptoms of ectopic pregnancy may not be obvious in the early stages. If you experience vaginal bleeding, abdominal pain, shock, or other suspected ectopic pregnancy symptoms, it is recommended that you go to the hospital for treatment in a timely manner. Since ectopic pregnancy may affect a woman's fertility, if you have a need for fertility in the future, it is recommended that you plan under the guidance of a doctor or use assisted reproductive technology.
