The risk of ectopic pregnancy and even the location of such should it happen, differs depending on the pregnancy was a result of natural conception of through a form of assisted reproductive technology (such as in-vitro fertilization).Generally, most ectopic pregnancy occur somewhere within the fallopian tube, the ampullary region being the most likely area in natural and assisted conception. Ectopic pregnancies can also occur in the cervix, ovaries and the abdominal cavity; however an occurrence of an ectopic pregnancy in these locations is rare; less than 3.5% in natural conception and just over 6% with assisted reproduction.
The ampulla (fallopian tube) is the second portion of the uterine tube . It is an intermediate dilated portion, which curves over the ovary .It is the most common site of human fertilization .The word ampulla is from the Latin for flask
Bone formation occurring in an abnormal place/position, eg. unwanted bone formation occurring in the spinal canal, or bone formation after total hip arthroplasty restricts flexion and abduction motion of the hip joint
In the fallopian tubes, NOT the uterus. By the time the egg reaches the uterus, if it hasn't been fertilized yet, it won't ever be fertilized because your body has already begun to make new hormones and prepare to shed the uterine lining. Eggs just don't live that long. They hang out in the fallopian tubes waiting to be fertilized, and if they are, then they travel to the uterus and implant, signaling the start of pregnancy. Sometimes a fetilized egg implants in the tubes themselves, called an ectopic pregnancy, which usually requires a surgery.
Implantation occurs in the lining of the uterus, specifically in the endometrium. This process involves the attachment of the fertilized egg, or embryo, to the uterine wall, where it will continue to grow and develop throughout the pregnancy.
The scientific name for the place a baby human develops is the uterus. It is a pear-shaped organ where the fertilized egg implants and grows into a fetus during pregnancy.
An ectopic pregnancy is when the fertilised egg attaches itself outside the uterus. The most common place where the ectopic pregnancy occurs is the fallopian tubes. Other possible areas where the ectopic could occur are the ovaries, abdomen and the cervix. The cause for ectopic pregnancy is mostly unknown. However endometriosis, any surgery to the abdomen, previous pelvic inflammatory disease all increase the chances of an ectopic pregnancy.
"Ectopic" is the term that means "out of place or position." An ectopic pregnancy is a pregnancy outside the uterus.
The term is ectopic pregnancy.
A pregnancy in which the zygote implants in the fallopian tube abdomen ovary or the cervix is called an Ectopic pregnancy.
It is really unknown at the time about what causes an ectopic pregnancy.
The medical term for a pregnancy that is out of place is ectopic pregnancy. This occurs when a fertilized egg implants outside of the uterus, typically in the fallopian tube. Ectopic pregnancies can be dangerous and require prompt medical attention.
This type of pregnancy is called ectopic, and it means out of place. The most common place for an Ectopic pregnancy is in the fallopian tubes. If it happens and the baby starts growing, it is painful to the mother because there is a fetus growing in a tube smaller than a strand of hair. The tissues aren't nurturing enough or designed to grow with a fetus. If an ectopic pregnancy happens, the fetus is surgically taken out of the fallopian tube. Since the fetus is cut out, you would think that they would be able to implant the fetus into the womb, but I haven't read anything like that happening.
No, there is no other organ except through the vagina. However the infant can begin to develop in odd places that are not part of the reproductive system. In an ectopic pregnancy, the fertilized egg implants in a location outside the uterus and tries to develop there. The word ectopic means "in an abnormal place or position." The most common site is the fallopian tube, the tube that normally carries eggs from the ovary to the uterus. However, ectopic pregnancy can also occur in the ovary, the abdomen, and the cervical canal (the opening from the uterus to the vaginal canal). The phrases tubal pregnancy, ovarian pregnancy, cervical pregnancy, and abdominal pregnancy refer to the specific area of an ectopic pregnancy. More than 95% percent of all ectopic pregnancies occur in the fallopian tube. Only 1.5% develop in the abdomen; less than 1% develop in the ovary or the cervix. Ectopic pregnancy was first described in the eleventh century and was a potentially fatal condition until the advent of surgery and blood transfusions in the early twentieth century.
It is when the fertilised egg plants anywhere other than in the uterus/womb and if this is the case the pregnancy cannot continue. Sometimes the body rejects the egg naturally and other times it has to be removed through surgery or an injection.

The IUD reduces the risk of all kinds of pregnancy, so an ectopic is less likely in women who use the IUD than in women who are not using birth control. However, among pregnancies occurring with the IUD in place, a greater ''proportion'' are ectopic than pregnancies among women not using birth control.
Menopause is cessation of menstruation as you grow old or due to hysterectomy. A tubal pregnancy is an ectopic pregnancy where in the inplantation takes place in the fallopian tube.
