Explain why Jay was infertile. Ectopic pregnancy Jean, a 23-year-old optician, was rushed into hospital with severe lower abdominal pain and low blood pressure. Examination and tests revealed that Jean had raised serum levels of human chorionic gonadotropin, blood in her peritoneal cavity, and an ectopic pregnancy. The embryo had implanted into the anterior wall of her rectum and had eroded a branch of the superior rectal artery causing an intra-abdominal bleed
Ans:- Jay is infetile because she has a ruptured fallopian tube , due to which fertilizer zygote is not able to reach the uterine cavity for proper implantation.
Due to ruptured fallopian tube fertilizer zygot is implanted into the anterior wall of rectum as mentioned in the que.
So jayb is infertile. Because if the ruptured fallopian tube is not repaired , in future also it will lead to ectopic pregnancy . Even after repair there are great change of stenosis of fallopian tube since it is a norrow str . So changes of stenosis are which will further block the passage and will prevent implantation in uterus.
