Ep206: What Does it Mean to Have an Ectopic Pregnancy?

<p><span>We’re doing a better job of talking about miscarriage but we don’t necessarily talk a lot about ectopic pregnancy loss. As I explain in the episode, an ectopic pregnancy happens when a fertilized egg implants outside of the uterus, usually in the fallopian tube. If that happens, it can be life-threatening and requires medical attention.</span></p><p><span>The emotional impact of an ectopic pregnancy can be the same as a miscarriage. Feelings of sadness, grief, and loss are common. Plus, it’s normal to experience anxiety and fear around your own health as well as what’s going to happen in future pregnancies.</span></p><p><span>The good news is that most often, an ectopic pregnancy will not affect your fertility. Listen to this episode to learn what warning signs to look out for and how to get the treatment you need. After you’ve received proper care, you should be able to go on to have a healthy baby.</span></p><h3><strong>In this Episode, You’ll Learn About:</strong></h3><ul><li>What ectopic pregnancy is and what causes it</li><li>How common it is to experience</li><li>Whether you can do anything to prevent it</li><li>How doctors can tell the difference between an ectopic and normal pregnancy</li><li>Which treatment option is right for you</li></ul><h3><br></h3><p><span>--</span></p><p><span>Full website notes: </span><a href="http://episodes/view/drnicolerankins.com/episode206" rel="nofollow">drnicolerankins.com/episode206</a></p><p><span>Check out The Birth Preparation Course</span></p><p><span>Register for the class </span><a href="https://drnicolerankins.com/survey/" rel="nofollow">How to Create a Birth Plan the Right Way</a></p><br/><br/>Advertising Inquiries: <a href='https://redcircle.com/brands'>https://redcircle.com/brands</a><br/><br/>Privacy & Opt-Out: <a href='https://redcircle.com/privacy'>https://redcircle.com/privacy</a>
