How do doctors treat ectopic pregnancy?

Patient's question:

On November 22nd, I had a careful ultrasound examination. The lump was larger, and the blood HCG was 900. I took a lot of traditional Chinese medicine, except for 6 tablets of mifepristone. On December 5th, I had another check-up, and the lump was 5 mm smaller than before, but the blood HCG exceeded 2100. I would like to ask the doctors why the blood HCG has decreased.

Doctor's answer:

Ectopic pregnancy is a dangerous gynecological emergency that requires high vigilance. Common causes of ectopic pregnancy include chronic tubal inflammation, tuberculosis, endometrial ectopic, and so on. Ectopic pregnancy is a more severe disease than miscarriage. As the fetus grows, the fallopian tube may rupture, causing heavy bleeding. It not only threatens the fetus but, more importantly, endangers the mother's life. If ectopic pregnancy is confirmed, it should be terminated as early as possible under the guidance of a doctor.
