A tubal pregnancy happens when the fertilized egg fails to reach its destination -- the uterus -- and instead becomes implanted in a fallopian tube. Tubal pregnancy is a life threatening situation for the mother and/or the baby. Therefore, whenever it is diagnosed, patient is recommended to get treatment immediately to remove the fertilized tissue.

I have read about such a pregnancy in a Norwegian magazine some years ago where the mother and baby actually survived but this is considered rare. I suppose it might even depend on exactly where in the tube the egg attaches itself whether it might be successful or will not be successful.

If you are diagnosed this way then I suggest you discuss this thoroughly with a specialist in the area of pregnancies outside the uterus/womb.

Can you have a successful pregnancy if you have had tubal pregnancy?

Absolutely! If your tube was damaged during the tubal pregnancy you may experience some trouble conceiving, however carrying a pregnancy to term after an ectopic pregnancy should not be a problem. Not every tubal pregnancy will irreconcilably damage a fallopian tube. If one of your fallopian tube has been severed due to a tubal pregnancy then you still have another one to rely on. If you have had two irreconcilably damaged fallopian tubes then you are going to need surgical help in getting a viable egg to your womb.
