Is there any way an ectopic pregnancy can survive???

Question

I was just wondering....

Answer 1

No. An ectopic pregnancy is a pregnancy that is implanted outside the uterus in the fallopian tubes. It cannot survive.

Answer 2

No, there is no way in which an ectopic pregnancy can be viable.

This is because the baby has implanted itself outside of the uterus, most commonly in the fallopian tube or ovary. As the fetus grows, it will be putting constant pressure on the small space that is not equipped to grow a baby. Once the fetus is large enough, it could burst or rupture the tube or ovary, causing internal bleeding. This is a potentially life threatening situation, and needs immediate medical attention. It is also extremely painful. If the tube does rupture, and even if medical attention is sought straight away, there is a chance that it will result in reduced fertility, or that the tube/ovary will have to be removed.

At the present time, there is no way in which one can move the fetus from a fallopian tube or ovary, and into the uterus. Perhaps in the future, medical science will find a way to do this, however I doubt that it will ever be an uncomplicated sugery.

Answer 3

I did see a news story a couple of years ago about a woman who went into labor and when they tried to deliver her daughter was not in the uterus. It turned out she had been ectopic and it had gone undiscovered. The pregnancy had implanted outside of the uterus. The doctor said had it been discovered they would have told her she needed to abort.
However, ectopic pregnancies are extremely dangerous to the mother. It can result in death or cause the tubes to be so damaged that ovulation from that side is not possible again , if the fertilized egg is not removed quickly. It is really not a risk one should take as the odds of a good outcome are almost 0

Answer 4

As far as I'm aware, the answer is no. The fallopian tubes are not nearly large or able to stretch enough to support a child, and if an embryo is left to develop there then the tube will burst. Ectopic pregnancies, when caught, are always terminated to save the mother.

Answer 5

No there is no way for an ectopic pregnancy to survive, the reason why is because it can cause permanent damage to the tube or loss of the tube, and if it involves very heavy internal bleeding that's not treated promptly, it can even lead to death. You will have to abort the pregnancy to save your tube.

Answer 6

I really don't think so. An ectopic pregnancy means that the egg has been fertilized while its still in the fallopian tube. It's quite painful, and eventually, I believe the pregnancy has to be terminated.

The best thing is to ask your doctor...

Answer 7

When my mom had hers the doc told her that if they would have found it sooner they could have transplanted it from the tube to the uterus, but she was on the verge of it rupturing when they found it,s ot there was no hope. Because she was farther along she had to have a Salpingectomy. Transplantation can only occur before the 5 week of pregnancy.

Other than that, I'm not sure.

Answer 8

No the tube cannot expand like the uterous and if it is not taken care of then the mother can die as well...usually those pregnancies only last about 8 weeks anyway

Answer 9

No known cases of fetus survival. Can be life threatening fore the mother.Spotting,bleeding, Dizziness from blood loss,low blood pressure,low back pain, Peace.

Answer 10

no and trying to do so is dangerous to even try in only a couple weeks the fetus will be too large and rupture the fallopial tube it can cause infertility
