What are the common causes of ectopic pregnancy?

What are the common causes of ectopic pregnancy? I believe many people have this question. Only when we understand the cause can we carry out more targeted treatment. Let us follow the experts to understand the causes of ectopic pregnancy .

1. Endometriosis. Endometriosis caused by various reasons such as retrograde menstruation is a high-risk factor for ectopic pregnancy.

2. The high incidence of ectopic pregnancy is most closely related to the high incidence of reproductive tract infection. Gynecological inflammation, such as vaginitis and cervicitis, may infect the fallopian tubes and cause inflammation of the fallopian tubes. After abortion, the body's own defense mechanism is affected, and the fallopian tubes are susceptible to bacterial infection, leading to inflammation of the tissues around the fallopian tubes. For those who have repeated abortions, the more times they get pregnant, the greater the possibility of ectopic pregnancy. Frequent abortions will cause trauma to the endometrium, making it difficult for the embryo to implant in the uterus, and it will be transferred to other places to settle down. This is one of the causes of ectopic pregnancy.

3. Fallopian tube inflammation: People with acute or chronic fallopian tube inflammation have congestion and edema of the fallopian tube mucosa, adhesion of the mucosal wall, which causes the lumen to narrow and become obstructed, and the peristalsis of the smooth muscle of the tube wall to weaken, which is not conducive to the movement of the fertilized egg and leads to ectopic pregnancy.

4. Improper selection of contraceptive methods can also lead to ectopic pregnancy. Contraceptive pills affect the levels of estrogen and progesterone, which in turn affect the peristalsis of the fallopian tube wall, ciliary activity, and secretion of epithelial cells. If hormones are out of balance, it will affect the transport of fertilized eggs and cause tubal pregnancy. Some women lack self-protection awareness and do not have long-term contraceptive measures. Abusing contraceptive pills will increase the risk of ectopic pregnancy. This is also the cause of ectopic pregnancy.
