What are the main causes of ectopic pregnancy?

What are the main 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. Repeated abortions can easily lead to ectopic pregnancy. The current incidence of ectopic pregnancy has increased 5-6 times compared to the 1980s. The more abortions you have, the greater the chance of ectopic pregnancy. Therefore, whether you have children or not, women should take good contraceptive measures to prevent ectopic pregnancy. This is one of the causes of ectopic pregnancy.

2. Chronic pelvic inflammatory disease induces ectopic pregnancy. Chronic pelvic inflammatory disease, especially salpingitis, is one of the important causes of ectopic pregnancy. Women must not ignore this common gynecological disease. Because salpingitis can narrow the lumen of the tube, it is difficult for the fertilized egg to enter the uterine cavity, so it has to "set up camp" in the fallopian tube or ovary.

3. IUD leads to ectopic pregnancy. Women who use IUD for contraception may also have ectopic pregnancy due to "foreign objects" in the uterine cavity, which may cause the fertilized egg to migrate to a part outside the uterine cavity and implant.

4. History of ectopic pregnancy. Women with a history of ectopic pregnancy are more likely to have another ectopic pregnancy, but interestingly, another ectopic pregnancy usually occurs in the opposite fallopian tube. Therefore, it is emphasized once again that women who are not ready to have a baby must do a good job of contraception. This is also the cause of ectopic pregnancy.
