Patient's question:
My good friend is a woman, 33 years old. My good friend almost died from an ectopic pregnancy a while ago, but luckily, she received timely medical treatment and recovered. I would like to know, what are the early symptoms of ectopic pregnancy? What are the common early symptoms of ectopic pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
Women with ectopic pregnancy are mostly caused by previous pelvic inflammation. Ectopic pregnancy usually has a history of missed periods first. Then, symptoms such as anal fullness, abdominal pain, and vaginal bleeding may appear. If you have had chronic pelvic inflammation pain in the past, you should be cautious about the possibility of ectopic pregnancy. It is recommended that you have a blood test to check for HCG. If the missed period is more than six weeks, you can have an MRI to rule out the possibility of ectopic pregnancy.
