her ex was a terrible person for the torture he caused her during this.

i didn’t know organs didn’t like it when blood touches them! that explains a lot

This is why abortion rights are so important. I worked with a girl- young mom of 2. She got an ectopic pregnancy, if she hadn't ended it she would've DIED. Niether mother or fetus can survive without removal of the pregnancy. She would've left 2 small babies, her husband and the child she had later would've never been born. Not all pregnancies are viable. And ultimately it's between a woman and her doctor- frankly it's no one elses business no matter what. I shouldn't have to justify my choices to anyone else period.

Love that now youtube has a banner on your video credifying you as a Doctor licensed in the US. Helps to give credence to your qualifications and specialty, that THIS is what an actual EXPERT's informed opinion is

My poor sister had a ruptured ectopic pregnancy. In hospital for two weeks. She received somewhere between 2-4 units of blood. This was just when AIDS was coming on the scene, blood products weren't screened yet. She had to get HIV tests for quite a few years.

I didn't know about my ectopic pregnancy until it ruptured at around 3 ½ months gestation and it made it nearly impossible to breathe due to the internal bleeding. I had to have repeated transfusions for 2 days after the emergency surgery because I'd lost so much blood. I had never experienced pain that bad and hope I never do again...it will forever be my level 10 on the pain scale.

The worst part was the ER Dr saying I was fine and refusing to do an ultrasound. He said I'd just pulled a muscle and just kept giving me Valium...it wasn't until I passed out in the hospital bathroom breaking my nose and knocking out my front tooth that he finally ordered an ultrasound.

I gave birth unmedicated TWICE
So I'm no stranger to pain
I had an IUD in and became ectopically pregnant, it was like I had been shot in the uterus, it was the most intense pain I've ever felt. Went to the hosp for them to say everything is fine. Was probably just a miscarriage of a baby that's not meant to be there.
4 days later I went back and my tube had exploded and my abdominal cavity was so full of blood they had to incise me instead of having it be key hole surgery like it's meant to be. And they struggled to wake me until the next day.
NIGHTMARE.
He's had a vasectomy now
But it took me almost actually dying for him to be responsible for our sexual health after 9 years together.

Even tho the iud gave me crazy pains all throughout the month, he said it was worth it to not have another baby. He cried like a bitch when he came back with his sliced sack. I had no sympathy, told him it's worth it for no more babies.

Ectopics are no joke I almost passed out and my family had to call an ambulance because of the severe pain I was in. The doctors couldn't find the pregnancy and sent me home and for a week I had to muscle through the pain till my fiance forced me to go to the emergency room and they found the pregnancy. I was given the chemo injection to kill it and the recovery was intense and scary. I could still rupture and bleed out plus my fiances family treated me like shit during it so I had absolutely no moral support or anyone to lean on.

I am currently in the Hospital for what might be an ectopic pregnancy... wish me luck

Edit: Thank you all! I am now back home recovering after surgery. It all went well.

[JoanieBC]

I remember this story & your response to it. That's what got you my follow. It's such an important example of what women face as our rights are systemically stripped from us.

Please keep educating! Please amplify what you know. You're one of our greatest assets in the fight for bodily autonomy.

Several years ago I had an ovarian cyst rupture and hemorrhage. Initially I thought I was constipated, but continued through an entire day with worsening pain and finally sought help after I became so bloated that I couldn’t bend over and the pain was not bearable. Without the proper testing at a physician’s office, I was sent home with the wrong diagnosis to wait for test results. Unfortunately, several more hours later, I was taken by ambulance to the hospital after all the blood had started pushing against my lungs and causes shoulder pain. Things were taken care of in surgery and they removed 2 pints of blood that leaked into my abdomen. Following this, I’ve have several more cysts rupture, and it’s so painful. I’ve been diagnosed with endometriosis, following another laparoscopic procedure. I live with pain that comes and goes every month. This only thing we have found to help, is using hormonal birth control to my period and lessen it to occur only once every 3 months.

Can we all say a PRAYER for the medications that are first line of defense for an ectopic pregnancy.... they are at risk for being banned. Caught early enough, a simple pill or two can fix an ectopic pregnancy and avoid surgery, and possible removal of your fallopian tube, even death.

"the organs don't like to be around blood."
OMG ME TOO that's something me and my internal organs have in common.

I had an ectopic pregnancy 35+ years ago. I still wince remembering the pain. My OB/Gyn couldn’t believe I wasn’t writhing on the ground and screaming in pain. This is when I (and my doctors) realized what a high tolerance for pain I had which was why by the time I scheduled an appointment I had “miscarried” already but had a bad infection.
I wasn’t hospitalized but put on antibiotics. Stayed home for a week but went back to work ( in NYC by bus and subway) My bosses took one look at me and grabbed a chair, sat me in it and asked what the hell was I doing at work? I was so pale, moving and speaking at a decidedly slower pace. I was an auditor and could be assigned to places all over the NYC Metropolitan area so I was assigned work in the office and sent home before rush hour and no one pushed me about my arrival although I was late I arrived by 9 am at latest. The supervisor I was working with was a married man and a new grandfather and he had me assist in his job, reviewing, editing and proofreading audit reports. He taught me the finer points of producing a report which distracted me, kept me taking meds appropriately and making sure I ate and drank fluids.
It took probably the better part of 6 weeks before I could routinely arrive and leave on time. To this day I send thanks and love to them in my thoughts and from my heart.

My now ex-husband didn’t have a clue and kept telling me I was making a big deal out of nothing.
That was my first pregnancy and 2 years later I had my first of 3 successful pregnancies. I have been blest with kids I not only love but I really like them too!!

Thank you for bringing this up. 3 Ectopics. I can tell u it hurts. And nobody talks about the emotional pain. AND IT'S NOT OPTIONAL! IT CAN HAPPEN MORE OFTEN THAN NOT. Before telling someone that they should avoid getting pregnant, please read about it.

[danadedanet]

It happened to my sister, she almost died, had to have emergency surgery cause she fainted at work and didn't even know she was pregnant... Her abdominal scar is completely gone but the trauma left something inside of her

[wenniekeith]

Oh those words are music to my ears. I was extremely bloated with every endometriosis episode. Some of my episodes lasted months. After 20 years of doctor denial, I finally had a hysterectomy at age 36. I was in pain so much I was labeled an opioid addict. To say I wasn't is an understatement. Please please keep spreading the word. Thank you

I got internal bleeding from an internal ultrasound wand. It hurt a lot, for many weeks. Long after a later ovary removal, I found out that this pain came from this internal bleeding. I was unable to stand up for days. (I did not sue.)

[alinac]

And now they make you literally wait until its ruptured and your almost bleeding out because thry are scared of abortion prosecution in the us. Smh..

[mandibailey]

My daughter had a teratoma on her left ovary. Her surgeon said it had likely been there since birth. All of her pain and symptoms were ignored until she looked pregnant. Even then she was told she was just constipated. Finally, her new pediatrician sent her to the Children's Emergency Department. Teratoma removed. It had teeth, hair, and cartilage. Interesting and rare. She lost her left ovary but she's happy about that.
I'm very thankful that she isn't sexually active.

Women deserve better Healthcare. It's 2023. This lady had an ectopic pregnancy. She's lucky she is alive.
