Not his fault: It isn't the male system that causes / leads to ectopics--it is usually due to an issue with the fallopian tubes. Often prior scarring, or just congenital (=born with) variances in the structures predispose to slow transit, so pregnancy gets deposited in wrong location. Talk to your gyn--might need an hsg (not fun, but delineate the pathways) to assess future risk of ectopics.
