Penicillin as an etiologic factor in ectopic pregnancy.
Among patients observed in private practice the incidence of ectopic pregnancy trebled after the advent of penicillin therapy in the treatment of chronic pelvic inflammatory disease. In seven of eleven cases of ectopic pregnancy in a two-year period, the patients had had penicillin therapy previously. A probable explanation is that in cases in which the fallopian tube is closed by inflammation, it reopens following penicillin therapy but, because of residual damage, the ovum may not descend to the uterine cavity and is impregnated in the tube.
