Answer:

A pregnancy that takes place when the fertilized egg combines itself in a place other than within the uterus is termed as an ectopic pregnancy. The signs and symptoms of ectopic pregnancy are stabbing or sharp pain, which may come and go and differ in intensity, heavier or lighter vaginal bleeding in comparison to the usual periods, dizziness, and gastrointestinal symptoms.
