Too Hot to Handle’s Emily Miller Treated for Ectopic Pregnancy

What are the symptoms of an ectopic pregnancy?

Severe abdominal or pelvic pain, accompanied by vaginal bleeding, as well as extreme lightheadedness or fainting, per the Mayo Clinic.

“Thinking back, I definitely ignored the signs my body was trying to tell me early on about my ectopic pregnancy” Miller wrote. “I can only urge girls to get an early pregnancy scan just to be on the safe side to rule out any kind of potential problems…please don’t ignore your body, love to you all.”

What is the long-term prognosis—will it affect the chance of conceiving again?

Most patients who experience an ectopic pregnancy will achieve a successful pregnancy in the future, even if they’ve lost one fallopian tube during their treatment, according to the Mayo Clinic. However, there is a 10 percent risk that they will experience another ectopic pregnancy, and losing both tubes significantly lowers fertility.

An ectopic pregnancy also carries a big emotional toll. Amid her emergency surgery and following her pregnancy loss, Miller received support from her partner. Holmes, 24, shared a photo of himself cuddling Miller on his Instagram Story, writing, “Just wanted to say Thankyou so much for all your kind messages and support. Appreciate every single one of you.”
