Which female compatriots are prone to ectopic pregnancy

Nowadays, the incidence of ectopic pregnancy can be said to be getting higher and higher. So which female compatriots are more likely to have ectopic pregnancy ? Why does ectopic pregnancy happen? Let's listen to the expert's analysis below.

Women with chronic salpingitis: Under normal circumstances, the fallopian tube can transport the fertilized egg to the uterine cavity through the swaying of cilia and the peristalsis of the smooth muscles of the fallopian tube. Women with chronic salpingitis have difficulty in the fertilized egg reaching the uterine cavity due to inflammation and pathological changes, which leads to ectopic pregnancy.

Women with dysplastic or deformed fallopian tubes: Pathological changes such as dysplastic fallopian tube muscle layer and lack of cilia in the endometrium reduce the function of the fallopian tube in transporting fertilized eggs. Malformations of the fallopian tubes also make it difficult for the fertilized egg to reach the uterine cavity smoothly.

Women who have had tubal ligation and recanalization: Regardless of whether it is natural recanalization or surgical recanalization, the fallopian tube is not as unobstructed as before, and the recanalized area is relatively narrow, so the fertilized egg can easily be trapped in the narrow area and settle down.

Women with endometriosis: This is because the endometrium in the interstitial part of the fallopian tube is ectopic, causing the lumen to be narrowed or blocked, making it difficult for the fertilized egg to pass through. On the other hand, when the fertilized egg comes into contact with the ectopic endometrium, the syncytial cells differentiate from the cytotrophoblast cells and secrete a mucosal dissolving protease to erode the ectopic membrane, forming a gap for the fertilized egg to implant and develop, thus causing an ectopic pregnancy in the interstitial part of the fallopian tube.

Women with pelvic tumors: Due to the squeezing and traction of the tumor, the position of the uterus or fallopian tube is moved and the structure is abnormal, which will hinder the fertilized egg from reaching the uterine cavity.

Women with a history of ectopic pregnancy: If they are preparing to become pregnant again but have not found and eliminated the cause of the previous ectopic pregnancy, the risk of ectopic pregnancy after this pregnancy is higher than that of ordinary women.

The information described above is about female compatriots who are prone to ectopic pregnancy. From the above, we can see that most of the factors causing ectopic pregnancy are due to blockage of the fallopian tubes, or obstruction of the fallopian tubes, which prevents the fertilized egg from reaching the uterine cavity smoothly. Here I would like to wish all patients with ectopic pregnancy a speedy recovery.
