A cousin of mine had an ectopic last year and it scared me a lot. Now im ttc and keep wondering if something i do could cause it. Is it something in our control or just random? trying to understand.
I had an ectopic and i kept asking what i did wrong, the answer was nothing. It was about my tubes, not my actions. If you have sharp one sided pain or bleeding early on, please get checked urgently, early detection is everything.
My doctor explained ectopic isnt caused by your daily actions, its more about things like past infections, tube damage or previous ectopic. So please dont blame yourself for any activity. Early scans catch it, which is why those first appointments matter.
I totally understand the fear behind this question. Please know it is not something you cause by what you do. Take care, go for your early scans, and be kind to yourself.
