Can the fallopian tube still be used after conservative treatment of ectopic pregnancy?

Ectopic pregnancy is an abnormal pregnancy and a very common gynecological disease. When diagnosed with ectopic pregnancy, the choice of treatment method has a lot to do with whether the patient needs to have children. For women who have not had children, they certainly do not want their fallopian tubes to be removed, so they hope to use conservative methods. So, can the fallopian tubes still be used after conservative treatment of ectopic pregnancy? Let’s take a look below.

The fallopian tube is preserved during ectopic pregnancy surgery and is still useful. The main thing is to see whether the fallopian tube is still unobstructed after the operation. If it is unobstructed, it can still transport sperm and eggs, and allow the sperm and eggs to combine in the fallopian tube to form a fertilized egg, thereby achieving the purpose of pregnancy. If the fallopian tube forms extensive adhesions due to chronic inflammation after surgery, this fallopian tube is useless because it can no longer transport sperm or eggs. Therefore, for patients with ectopic pregnancy, if the fallopian tubes are retained, it is recommended to undergo a fallopian tube angiography before the next pregnancy. The main thing is to understand whether the bilateral fallopian tubes are unobstructed, especially whether the retained fallopian tubes are unobstructed, and then prepare for pregnancy.

Ectopic pregnancy is an abnormal pregnancy phenomenon. This type of pregnancy cannot be "ripened and ended". Therefore, when an ectopic pregnancy is discovered, it is necessary to terminate the pregnancy through conservative treatment or surgical treatment to directly remove the fertilized egg effectively. During the process of conservative treatment, although some damage will be caused to the inside of the fallopian tube, the damage is not very serious. Therefore, as long as you pay more attention to your body after the treatment and take effective care of details such as diet, work and rest, and labor, the operation of the fallopian tube will not be abnormal.

Because the causes of ectopic pregnancy are different, after conservative treatment, the damage to the fallopian tubes is not serious, but it cannot guarantee that the fallopian tubes can still be used normally. After all, the cause of ectopic pregnancy in women may be due to malformation or abnormality of the fallopian tube itself. Therefore, after conservative treatment, only relevant treatment can be done according to the pregnancy situation, but the overall structure of the fallopian tube cannot be significantly changed. Therefore, when the causes are different, there will be detailed differences in the later use status of the fallopian tube.

From the above, we can see that after conservative treatment of ectopic pregnancy, there is no guarantee that the fallopian tubes can be used normally. Because the cause of ectopic pregnancy may be the abnormal development of the fallopian tube structure itself, conservative treatment cannot effectively adjust the fallopian tube structure, and naturally cannot guarantee the normal use of the fallopian tube in the later stage.
