It occurs when a woman’s ovum (egg) that has been fertilised, implants somewhere instead of moving successfully down her fallopian tube into the womb to develop there.

http://www.ectopic.org.uk/patients/reasons-for-an-ectopic-pregnancy/ Reasons for an ectopic pregnancy - The Ectopic Pregnancy Trust - Any sexually active woman of childbearing age is at risk of an ectopic pregnancy and often the reason for the ectopic pregnancy will never be determined.

http://www.ectopic.org.uk/patients/symptoms-and-diagnosis/ Symptoms of Ectopic Pregnancy - The Ectopic Pregnancy Trust - If you are a woman of childbearing age and have recently been sexually active, pains in your lower tummy may be due to many things. They could, however, be due to an ectopic pregnancy. The following are possible ectopic pregnancy symptoms.

http://www.ectopic.org.uk/patients/diagnosis/ Diagnosing an ectopic pregnancy - The Ectopic Pregnancy Trust - Ectopic pregnancy can be difficult to diagnose because its symptoms can suggest other, more usual, conditions such as gastroenteritis, miscarriage or even appendicitis. The more you can tell a doctor about what has changed, what feels different and what is worrying you, the more likely they are to be able to diagnose you.

http://www.ectopic.org.uk/patients/treatment/ Treating an ectopic pregnancy - The Ectopic Pregnancy Trust - If you have been diagnosed as having an ectopic pregnancy and are stable, with pulse and blood pressure within normal limits, and there is no heavy bleeding or severe pain, and if there are no signs of dizziness or fainting, the doctor will be able to discuss various treatment options with you.

http://www.ectopic.org.uk/professionals/factors-increasing-risk-of-ectopic-pregnancy/ Factors increasing risk of ectopic pregnancy - The Ectopic Pregnancy Trust - Pregnancies implant in the Fallopian tube because of a combination of factors: a failure of the mechanisms which move the pregnancy along the Fallopian tube into the womb and a change in the environment in the fallopian tube that allows early implantation to occur.

http://www.ectopic.org.uk/professionals/morbidity/ Morbidity in ectopic pregnancy - The Ectopic Pregnancy Trust - As trainee gynaecologists, one of the first things we learn is the idea that a women with pain, bleeding and almost any symptoms has an ectopic pregnancy until proved otherwise. Over time maybe this teaching has slipped.

I already own this item but bought one for my sister. The part of the case that houses the battery has a tendency of slipping off, and I'm not sure of the purpose of the light, but it does the trick.
