It's a pregnancy that develops outside the womb, usually in one of the fallopian tubes. That is why it is also known as a tubal pregnancy. It happens in about two of every 100 pregnancies in India.
As the pregnancy grows, it causes pain and bleeding and, if not recognized, the tube can rupture, causing internal bleeding. This is a medical emergency and can be fatal. The pregnancy itself never survives -- it can't be moved to the womb and has to be removed.
