Tubular Pregnancy?

Question

Has anyone heard of this? What causes it? Are there any dangers? I need some information on it.

How soon do you need to catch this in order to avoid any of the effects in can cause?

Answer 1

A tubular pregnancy is an ectopic pregnancy that has implanted in the fallopian tube. The danger is if untreated it can cause the fallopian tube to rupture and cause internal bleeding. Previous history of PID, prior ectopic pregnancy and vaginal scarring, or tubal ligation can cause it.

It needs to be caught a.s.a.p. to avoid potentially fatal effects. Mine was at 9 weeks pregnant. The earlier they catch it, the more option they have on how to treat it; surgery or methotrexate.

Answer 2

I think what you are asking is a tubal pregnancy. This is when the fertilized egg implants in the fallopian tube instead of the uterus. The danger is that at some point the embryo outgrows the tube and it ruptures. Untreated this could cause death. Most tubal pregancies are removed surgically.
We dont know why it happens, it just does. However, having one tubal pregnancy does not mean a regular pregnacy cant be achieved.

Answer 3

sometimes a fertalized egg will implant outside the uterus, either in the tube, the cervex, the outside on the uterus or the inner abdomen walll. This is called an eptopic pregnancy, the most common of which is a tubal. Its a non-viable pregnancy, and has to be removed. Its a sad occurance, but it happens. There is no known cause, sometimes a woman has scar tissure in her tubes for endomitriosis or STD's, but it can happen ih health women as well. Good luck

Answer 4

There are many dangers to the mother including death. Basically, instead of attaching itself to the wall of the uterus, the fetus moves into a fallopian tube. The tube cannot expand and can rupture. Most tubular pregnancies end in miscarriage or must be aborted.
