Pregnancy happens when a fertilized egg attaches to the uterus lining, which is structured to stretch bigger with the growing fetus. An ectopic pregnancy occurs when this fertilized egg attaches to the other structures instead of the uterus and grows, most commonly in the fallopian tubes. It can cause symptoms like early pregnancy, later accompanied by abdominal pain and vaginal bleeding. The fallopian tubes can not stretch bigger with the growing fetus resulting in the bursting of the tube, and bleeding, which is a medical emergency.
