Is ectopic pregnancy contagious?

Is ectopic pregnancy contagious? Ectopic pregnancy is not contagious, but it should be treated promptly. There are many options for the treatment of ectopic pregnancy, which depends on the fertility requirements, the size and location of the ectopic pregnancy and the patient's physical condition. For those who are infertile, the fertility can be preserved to the maximum extent possible while saving the patient's life. So what are the treatments for ectopic pregnancy?

Treatment of ectopic pregnancy

1. Conservative treatment with drugs

If an ectopic pregnancy can be diagnosed in the early stages, before the fallopian tube ruptures, and the patient does not desire to have children, drug therapy is the best option, as it is less harmful to the patient and the body can recover easily. However, it cannot be used for those who desire to have children, because the killed embryos polarize in situ, often causing blockage of the fallopian tube.

2. Fallopian tube fenestration and suture

For ectopic pregnancy with unruptured fallopian tube or small rupture, laparoscopic surgery is used to cut the fallopian tube, remove the embryo, and then suture to maintain the function of the fallopian tube. This is the best treatment method for ectopic pregnancy advocated today. C. Salpingectomy is for patients with severe fallopian tube rupture that is difficult to repair and accompanied by hemorrhagic shock. The only option is laparoscopic or open removal of the affected fallopian tube, and a blood transfusion may be required.

3. Corpus luteum destruction during pregnancy

1. Laparoscopic method: After the patient's informed consent, take 250 mg of mifepristone orally before the operation. Under reliable anesthesia, the location of pregnancy is confirmed under laparoscopy. If it is indeed not ruptured, the corpus luteum of pregnancy can be found, separated and removed, and bleeding can be stopped reliably. If it has ruptured or is close to rupture, fenestration and suture are performed. HCG and progesterone levels are monitored every day after the operation.

2. Vaginal B-ultrasound intervention: Take 250 mg of mifepristone orally before the operation. Under reliable anesthesia, remove the corpus luteum through vaginal B-ultrasound puncture, and then inject 5-10 ml of anhydrous alcohol. Monitor HCG and progesterone levels every day after the operation.
