The treatment procedure for ectopic pregnancy usually depends on the severity of the condition. The main treatment options for ectopic pregnancy are medication or surgery.
Medication treatment – If an ectopic pregnancy is detected in an earlier stage, then treatment with medication is usually recommended. In medication treatment, doctors suggest methotrexate. This medicine is given directly by injection in a single dose. The doctor monitors the level of hCG before and after the procedure. If the first dose fails to decrease the level of hCG, then a second dose may be needed. Confirmation of termination of ectopic pregnancy is done by performing an ultrasound.
Surgical treatment – Surgical treatment for ectopic pregnancy usually depends on the type of ectopic pregnancy. Salpingectomy and salpingostomy are two types of laparoscopic surgeries that are performed to treat ectopic pregnancies.
