Other ectopic pregnancy - what does this mean

Other ectopic pregnancy occurs when a fertilized egg implants and grows outside of the uterus, most commonly in the fallopian tubes. this can be caused by scar tissue from a prior infection, a birth defect, or a complication from a prior surgery. ectopic pregnancies can be life-threatening and require immediate medical attention.

What happens during the disease - other ectopic pregnancy

Other ectopic pregnancy is a type of ectopic pregnancy in which the embryo implants in an abnormal location other than the uterus, such as the cervix, ovary, or abdominal cavity. this is caused by disruption of the normal process of fertilization and implantation, leading to a fertilized egg being unable to reach the uterus for implantation. it is often caused by damage to the fallopian tubes, which can be due to infection, inflammation, or a structural abnormality. other risk factors include prior pelvic or abdominal surgery, endometriosis, and the use of certain fertility treatments.
