The difference between bleeding caused by ectopic pregnancy and menstruation:

The difference between ectopic pregnancy bleeding and menstruation is that patients with ectopic pregnancy have less vaginal bleeding and a history of menopause; menstrual bleeding is a normal physiological phenomenon, which is cyclical and does not cause obvious discomfort. More than 90% of ectopic pregnancies occur in the fallopian tubes, but can also occur in the ovaries, cervix, and even the abdominal cavity.

Because the tissues of the fallopian tubes and ovaries are not as strong and elastic as the uterus, when the embryo develops to a certain extent, it will destroy the surrounding tissues, causing heavy bleeding and abdominal pain, which can be life-threatening in a short period of time. Therefore, it is very important to detect ectopic pregnancy and treat it in time.

1. Hypoplasia of the fallopian tube, endometriosis, and recanalization after ligation can hinder the movement of the fertilized egg, causing it to stay in the fallopian tube and implant, developing into an ectopic pregnancy.

2. Chronic salpingitis: Inflammation causes adhesion of the fallopian tube lining, leading to narrowing of the tube lumen and weakened peristalsis of the tube wall, allowing the egg to enter the fallopian tube for fertilization. The fertilized egg cannot return to the uterine cavity, resulting in an ectopic pregnancy.

3. Fertilized egg migration: After fertilization in one fallopian tube, the fertilized egg can swim along the umbrella end to the other fallopian tube. Due to the extended time, it has the ability to conceive before entering the uterine cavity, leading to the occurrence of ectopic pregnancy.

4. Pelvic tumors compress or pull the fallopian tubes, causing them to shift or deform, blocking the passage of the fertilized egg and leading to ectopic pregnancy.
