Patient's question:
Female, 25 years old, this is the first time I am having a prenatal check-up. The doctor found that my hCG doubling is not good, and I also have some irregular bleeding. After the examination, it turned out to be an ectopic pregnancy. Please ask: What are all the symptoms of ectopic pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
The typical characteristics of ectopic pregnancy are: missed periods, vaginal bleeding, and abdominal pain. About 10 days after intercourse, pregnancy may cause symptoms such as nausea, vomiting, and breast tenderness. You can go to the hospital for a blood hCG test, which usually becomes detectable around 10 days after intercourse. It is the earliest and most accurate method. For an ultrasound, pregnancy should be at least 6-7 weeks along to see the gestational sac. I suggest you go to the hospital for an ultrasound check-up after some time.
