Patient's question:
I had an IUD inserted 10 years ago, and my menstrual cycle has always been very regular. However, this month, my period was delayed by a week, and I've been feeling nauseous and vomiting. After a check-up, it was found to be an ectopic pregnancy. How could this happen? Could you please tell me what are the better treatments for ectopic pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
Hello, the cystic area in the uterine cavity may be a small gestational sac, and the mixed area in the adnexa may be a corpus luteum cyst. This condition is generally not indicative of ectopic pregnancy, but the gestational sac is too small, requiring a follow-up ultrasound in a few days for diagnosis. It is recommended to have a follow-up ultrasound at the hospital in one week for diagnosis. During this period, it is important to rest, avoid strenuous exercise, and consume high-quality protein foods to boost the immune system. The recurrence of ectopic pregnancy poses a serious threat to women's health. Patients should pay attention to maintaining clean external genitalia and avoiding sexual activity in daily life. At the same time, it is hoped that female patients can receive effective treatment.
