Q. Ectopic pregnancies rarely resolve on their own, and usually need medication and or surgery. But if the ectopic pregnancy resolves on its own, what are the signs of this?
A. The first symptom that is usually reported by women with ectopic pregnancies is light vaginal bleeding or spotting, which is accompanied by one-sided pelvic pain. The pain is often described as sharp or stabbing and the intensity may vary at intervals. In severe cases such that of a ruptured ectopic pregnancy, pelvic pain may be associated with abdominal pain that radiates to the shoulder or neck. Other symptoms to look out for are dizziness, low back pain, hypotension or low blood pressure, nausea and vomiting.
Ectopic pregnancies do not resolve on their own. Treatment of an ectopic pregnancy may vary, and it can largely depend on whether there is an immediate need for surgery. In cases of a ruptured fallopian tube, an emergency surgery is needed in order to stop the bleeding. If the fallopian tube and ovary are damaged, removal may be necessary. But if the condition is detected early and the fallopian tube is still intact, a laparoscopic surgery may be performed to remove the embryo and to repair the damage. This procedure is less invasive because only a small incision is needed for the repairs to be done.
For a pregnancy that is not very far along, surgery is usually not the first option because a drug called Methotrexate is usually enough to halt the development of pregnancy. But regardless of the treatment option, doctors would still continue to monitor a woman�s hCG levels to ensure that pregnancy was successfully terminated. If hCG levels remain elevated, additional treatment methods may be necessary either through medications or even surgery.
Hope this helps!

What is the latest a woman could carry an ectopic pregnancy before she would know?
Q. How late could a woman carry an ectopic pregnancy before it starts with the severe pain? Lets say a woman is 9 weeks into her pregnancy but doesn�t have an OB appointment till the 11th week. Would she have shown the signs of ectopic pregnancy, severe pains, blood, back pain and dizziness by the 9th week or could it take later to show up?
A. 9 weeks would be showing by now. You'd have really bad stomach pains and you would be bleeding quite a bit.
What are the signs & symptoms of a tubal/ectopic pregnancy?
Q. What are the signs & symptoms of a tubal/ectopic pregnancy? Also do you still get your period during an ectopic pregnancy?
A. In the very early stages, tubal pregnancy symptoms are just like those of a healthy pregnancy. A little morning sickness, some breast tenderness, being tired, and missed periods.
After 5 weeks, more specific symptoms include cramping or pain in the abdomen, spotting, and dizziness or light-headedness.
You would miss your periods if it is a tubal pregnancy.
There are tests which your doctor can run. They include a pelvic exam, both external and internal...trying to find unusual qualities and will check to see if your uterus looks to be the proper size for the baby�s length of gestation.
