Question: how can ectopic pregnancy happen with ivf?
Answer: The cause is usually a dysfunctional tube - a tube that doesn't properly move the embryo into the uterus. However, ectopic pregnancy can also occur after IVF. Yes, as strange at this sounds, it can. In IVF we place the embryo right into the uterus but it can be pushed into the tubes (rarely!), causing ectopic.
