What are the sequelae of ectopic pregnancy surgery

The so-called ectopic pregnancy is when the fetus has not yet grown in the uterus and is still outside the uterus, thus gradually forming an ectopic pregnancy. In general, ectopic pregnancy will bring very serious consequences, such as some signs of inability to conceive, etc. So, I believe that everyone still doesn’t know much about the sequelae of ectopic pregnancy surgery!

Are there any sequelae after ectopic pregnancy surgery?

In most cases, there will be no sequelae after ectopic pregnancy surgery, but if one fallopian tube is removed during the operation, it is necessary to check whether the other fallopian tube is normal to avoid affecting future pregnancy.

In addition, a small number of patients may experience sequelae such as abdominal pain and back pain. Abdominal pain and back pain are common phenomena after curettage. Generally, they will be relieved or disappear within a week. If the back pain and abdominal pain persist for a long time, it is an abnormal phenomenon. The sequelae of curettage are common in endometritis, fallopian tube obstruction, cervicitis, endometriosis, and other gynecological inflammations.

The sequelae of not getting enough rest after ectopic pregnancy surgery may lead to incomplete recovery of the uterus, abnormal function, ovarian endocrine abnormalities and other gynecological diseases such as endocrine disorders. The following aspects should be achieved to effectively avoid the occurrence of sequelae of ectopic pregnancy.

Postoperative care for ectopic pregnancy

After surgery for ectopic pregnancy, the patient should rest in bed and avoid moving the patient and pressing the lower abdomen. After ectopic pregnancy surgery, the patient's condition should be closely observed. If the patient has shoulder pain, a urge to defecate, and frequent urination, it indicates internal bleeding in the abdominal cavity. At this time, changes in blood pressure and pulse should be closely observed.

After surgery for ectopic pregnancy, the patient was placed in a supine position and given oxygen. Be prepared for blood transfusion and surgery. When you have abdominal pain, do not use analgesics to avoid masking the symptoms and causing misdiagnosis.

Within 2 weeks after ectopic pregnancy surgery, you should rest properly and avoid doing heavy physical labor. After ectopic pregnancy surgery, patients should eat more nutritious food to restore their bodies to normal as soon as possible. They should refrain from sexual intercourse within one month to prevent reproductive organ infection.

If you want to get pregnant, you have to wait for one year. If you have fever, abdominal pain, or vaginal discharge with an unusual odor, seek medical attention immediately. Maintain a regular routine in your life. Even if the ectopic pregnancy surgery is successful, if the life after the surgery is irregular, it will aggravate bleeding or leave sequelae. After ectopic pregnancy surgery, you can rest in the hospital for a day or go home.

Regarding the sequelae of ectopic pregnancy surgery introduced above, friends who have undergone ectopic pregnancy surgery in their lives should also actively respond and maintain themselves, especially after ectopic pregnancy, which can easily cause signs of miscarriage or inability to conceive.
