An ectopic pregnancy occurs when the baby starts to develop outside
the womb (uterus). The most common site for an ectopic pregnancy is
within one of the tubes through which the egg passes from the ovary to
the uterus (fallopian tube). However, in rare cases, ectopic
pregnancies can occur in the ovary, stomach area, or cervix.
An ectopic pregnancy is usually caused by a condition that blocks or
slows the movement of a fertilized egg through the fallopian tube to
the uterus. This may be caused by a physical blockage in the tube.
Most cases are a result of scarring caused by:
- Past ectopic pregnancy
- Past infection in the fallopian tubes
- Surgery of the fallopian tubes
