An ectopic pregnancy is a pregnancy where the fertilized egg settles and grows outside the r inside layer of the uterus (not in the uterus). The uterus is the womb. Most ectopic pregnancies happen in the Fallopian tube , known as a tubular pregnancy , but they can also occur in the cervix (neck of the womb), abdominal cavity and ovary.
Somewhat over 1% of all pregnancies are ectopic pregnancies. In a normal pregnancy the egg should be fertilized by the sperm in a fallopian tube; the fertilized egg then travels into the uterus (womb) and implants itself in the lining of the uterus. The embryo develops into a fetus and remains in the uterus until the baby is born.
