In this episode of The Egg Whisperer Show, I’m joined by Dr. Laura Londra, a board-certified reproductive endocrinologist and fertility expert, to talk about a topic that is as important as it is urgent: ectopic pregnancy. While rare, ectopic pregnancies are potentially life-threatening and require immediate medical attention. That’s why it’s essential to know the signs and understand the risks.
Dr. Londra helps break down what an ectopic pregnancy is, how it’s diagnosed, and how it’s treated. We talk about the early warning signs, including what symptoms to look for after IVF or natural conception, and the medical and surgical options available. We also discuss what having an ectopic pregnancy might mean for future fertility and what steps can be taken to reduce the risk of recurrence. This episode is filled with compassionate, clear, and essential information that every patient should know.
In this episode, we cover:
- What an ectopic pregnancy is and where it can occur
- The early warning signs and symptoms to watch for
- How ectopic pregnancies are diagnosed and confirmed
- Treatment options, including medication and surgery
- What to consider when trying to conceive after an ectopic pregnancy
