What is the difference between a biochemical pregnancy and an ectopic pregnancy?

When my sister-in-law was pregnant, the whole family treated her like a treasure and worshipped her like a bodhisattva, because my mother said that your sister-in-law is a great contributor, she is the root of our family. In fact, there is no other way. This is the custom in our hometown. A pregnant woman is a queen and is well served. But sometimes, there are some specific factors that lead to miscarriage. The final result of biochemical pregnancy and ectopic pregnancy is miscarriage. So what is the difference between biochemical pregnancy and ectopic pregnancy?

In ancient times, especially in the imperial family, it can really be said that mothers are honored by their children. As long as women have children, their status will gradually rise, and the appreciation they receive will also increase. However, sometimes they will have miscarriages, not because of persecution by outsiders, but because of their own reasons. Biochemical pregnancy and ectopic pregnancy can both cause miscarriages. So let's understand the difference between biochemical pregnancy and ectopic pregnancy!

The main cause of biochemical pregnancy

What are the causes of biochemical abortion and factors that affect the implantation of fertilized eggs:

1. The fertilized egg itself is defective; (check the chromosomes of both parties)

2. Poor ovarian corpus luteum function, insufficient progesterone secretion, abnormal endometrium, affecting the implantation of the fertilized egg; (check six hormone items)

3. Uterine factors: uterine hypoplasia, uterine submucosal fibroids, endometrial polyps, intrauterine adhesions, endometrial tuberculosis, etc. affect the implantation of the fertilized egg; (hysteroscopy)

4. Immune factors: Research on immune factors in recent years has shown that there are two immune conditions that affect conception. a Alloimmunity: sperm, seminal plasma or fertilized egg are antigenic substances. After being absorbed by the vaginal and uterine epithelium, they produce antibody substances through immune reaction, which prevents sperm and egg from combining or fertilized egg from implanting; b Autoimmunity: It is believed that there are zona pellucida autoantibodies in the serum of infertile women, which react with the zona pellucida to prevent sperm from penetrating the egg, thus preventing fertilization; (blood test to check immune antibodies and blocking antibodies)

5. TCM treatment: If the above tests are normal, see if TCM can find any problems; (TCM treatment)

6. Excessive mental stress, especially severe anxiety due to failure to conceive, and excessive psychological pressure. (Relax)

Ectopic pregnancy prevention

1. Pregnancy and proper contraception

Choose a time when both parties are in a good mood and physical condition to get pregnant. If you are not considering becoming a mother for the time being, you must take good contraceptive measures. Good contraception fundamentally prevents the occurrence of ectopic pregnancy.

2. Timely treatment of reproductive system diseases

Inflammation is the main culprit for fallopian tube stenosis. Intrauterine operations such as artificial abortion increase the chance of inflammation and endometrium entering the fallopian tube, which in turn leads to adhesion and stenosis of the fallopian tube, increasing the possibility of ectopic pregnancy. Reproductive system diseases such as uterine fibroids and endometriosis may also change the morphology and function of the fallopian tubes. Timely treatment of these diseases can reduce the occurrence of ectopic pregnancy.

3. Try IVF

If a woman has had an ectopic pregnancy before, the possibility of another one is enough to destroy her confidence in becoming a mother. In vitro fertilization is an option. After the sperm and egg successfully "get married" in vitro, the fertilized egg can be sent back to the mother's uterus for safe gestation.

4. Pay attention to hygiene during menstruation, delivery and postpartum period to prevent infection of the reproductive system. Determine the location of pregnancy as soon as possible after menopause to detect ectopic pregnancy in time.

Through the above introduction, we know the causes of biochemical pregnancy and how to prevent ectopic pregnancy. I hope people can have a comprehensive understanding so that every woman who wants to be a mother will not miss every opportunity. As for the difference between biochemical pregnancy and ectopic pregnancy, I also hope people can correctly understand it.
