An ectopic pregnancy is simply when an egg is implanted on the outside of the uterus, most commonly occurring within the Fallopian tube. This can cause immense abdominal pain, vaginal bleeding, and more. It's very important to get checked as soon as symptoms surface, as it may be a medical emergency. Most commonly, an ectopic pregnancy is found between five and ten weeks. If you have ever had pelvic inflammatory disease, abdominal surgery, smoke, or are above the age of forty, you're at an increased risk.
