it is a very dangerous type of pregnancy which is not associated with the ability to have a live baby. the longer this type of pregnancy goes the higher the risk of major complications to the mother. this type of pregnancy is associated with a very high risk of significant vaginal bleeding and need for blood transfusion. i would suggest you see a high risk obstetrician (maternal fetal medicine) to assess the pregnancy. if they agree it is a cervical pregnancy you will need to have it removed with great care. there are a number of ways of handling this. medication can be given (a chemotherapeutic agent-medicine to treat cancer) to kill the active cells. a dilation and curretage can be performed and a foley catheter can be placed to prevent the heavy bleeding. .
i have been told that i have a cervical pregnancy. what does this mean?
