Patient's question:
Female, 28 years old, this is my first prenatal check-up today. 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: If the transvaginal ultrasound cannot find a gestational sac, is it ectopic pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
As long as a gestational sac is observed inside the uterus, if it is not pregnancy, it could be that the timing is short and it hasn't entered the uterus yet. Seek a diagnosis from another hospital to check if it is truly not pregnant, and then consider whether treatment is needed to restore health. If pregnancy is detected with abnormal secretions, it may be related to threatened miscarriage. Different causes lead to different symptoms. Patients need to go to a formal, top-tier hospital as soon as possible for systematic and standardized examinations to receive targeted treatment. Additionally, patients should maintain regular routines, take precautions against cold and keep warm, eat light, soft, and liquid foods, ensure good ventilation, and drink plenty of hot water.
