Non-surgical treatment of ectopic pregnancy

ABSTRACT

In the past few decades, ectopic pregnancy has been termed by medical practitioners has a global epidemic. With the questions lingering on everbody minds how this menace can be tamed. In a bid to reduce the mortality and financial burden brought by this evolving growing health concern, the medic has developed non-surgical alteratives to deal with ectopic pregnancy, i.e., treatment using methotrexate. In a bid to explore this topic further, these study goals were to share the experience of treating mothers who have un-ruptured ectopic pregnancies traditionally. Mothers who were found to have an ectopic pregnancy and fit the medical care were encompassed in the program, a total of 37 women. For instance, those with serum beta HCG in the range of 1000 mIU per liter were treatment expectantly whereas those with a level more than a thousand were given an injection of methotrexate. To monitor the response of experiment, beta HCG levels were monitored for each mother. The results of the current study established that 88.0% of women who underwent the study, only 12.0% of them exhibited full rsolution while the remaining lot resolved only after a sole dose of methotrexate. From the results of this study, it is evidently clear that a lot of pregnant mothers would be greatly helped if they are enrolled in such therapy at early days
