In summary
- Ectopic pregnancy is common. The pregnancy never survives.
- The typical first symptom is pain in the lower tummy (abdomen) after a recent missed period.
- As the pregnancy grows it may tear (rupture) the Fallopian tube, requiring emergency surgery.
- Planned treatment before rupture occurs is best.
- Most women with ectopic pregnancies do not need surgery
