What should I do if I have an ectopic pregnancy?

Patient's question:

I am 27 years old, female. I used a pregnancy test and found out I am pregnant. I am so happy! When I went to the hospital for a thorough check-up, it turned out to be an ectopic pregnancy. What should I do about an ectopic pregnancy?

Doctor's answer:

Ectopic pregnancy must be confirmed through an ultrasound, based on the location of the gestational sac. Since you have just become pregnant, it's too early for the ultrasound to detect it. If there are no other discomforts during this period, it is recommended that you wait and see for a while and then have an ultrasound after 2 weeks. Patients need to go to a formal, top-tier hospital as soon as possible for systematic and standardized examinations based on their specific condition to receive targeted treatment and recover quickly.
