Abstract | We analysed the records for 464 consecutive patients with histologically documented ectopic pregnancy during a 9-year period in Hong Kong and found a seasonal pattern. There was a statistically significant increase in the likelihood of conceptions during the summer months (June-September) resulting in ectopic pregnancies as compared with the winter months (October-February) (p ≤ 0.02). No such difference was observed when conception occurred in other seasons. |
