What precautions should be taken to prevent ectopic pregnancy?

Patient's question:

I've been married for several years now, and we still don't have any children. I'm very anxious about it and don't know if it's my problem. I've asked my husband to get checked, but he refuses. I'm very worried that my condition might worsen. What should I pay attention to in order to prevent ectopic pregnancy?

Doctor's answer:

Considering the possibility of ectopic pregnancy is unlikely, as ectopic pregnancy progesterone levels are generally low, usually below 20, making the possibility of ectopic pregnancy relatively small. However, from the careful examination results, the low hCG value could also be due to a short delivery time. Continuous monitoring of hCG values can help determine if they are normal. After pregnancy, hCG values generally double every other day, with a very rapid growth rate. Alternatively, you can wait until six weeks pregnant and undergo an MRI examination at the hospital to confirm whether it is an intrauterine pregnancy. The pregnancy duration is calculated from the first day of the last menstrual period. Ectopic pregnancy is a gynecological disease that is prone to occur. During medication, women need to pay attention to their own care, especially in terms of hygiene. It is recommended that patients avoid sexual activity during treatment and pay close attention to cleanliness. Finally, we wish female patients a speedy recovery!
