Does endometriosis increase your risk of an ectopic pregnancy?

The short answer: Yes — and here’s what the evidence says.

Studies show that women with endometriosis are 2 to 3 times more likely to experience an ectopic pregnancy compared to those without the condition.

A large meta-analysis revealed that the ectopic pregnancy rate increases from 0.8% in the general population to 1.8% in women with endometriosis.

The risk is even higher in stage 4 endometriosis, where adhesions and ovarian endometriomas may interfere with the fallopian tubes and disrupt egg movement.

Another study showed a 2.7x higher risk in women with severe endometriosis.

Understanding these risks is crucial — especially for those trying to conceive.


If you’ve been diagnosed with endometriosis, it’s important to talk with your doctor about fertility and pregnancy planning.
