Ovarian disease is usually benign, but in some cases, ovum pregnancy can lead to scary complications such as invasive ovum or trophoblastic cancer.

1. How is the egg formed?

Normally, after the sperm fuses with the ovum, it becomes a fertilized egg, which develops into the fetus and its appendages such as the placenta and amniotic sac. In some cases, the trophoblastic cells grow too quickly while the connective tissue and capillaries of the umbilical blood vessels in the placenta do not develop in time, leading to degeneration of the placenta.
The edematous spines form fluid-filled sacs that stick together like bunches of grapes and occupy most of the uterine cavity. This phenomenon is called oviposition. The egg can develop into a mass with no embryo (partial oocyte) or with an abnormal embryo (partial ovum).

2. Egg pregnancy symptoms

Pregnant women often experience the following basic symptoms:
Bleeding: is the most common symptom, occurring a few weeks after a missed period, or occurring from the 6th - 16th week of pregnancy. Vaginal blood can be little or a lot, usually thin blood, dark bruises, sometimes bright red and bleeding for many days.
