Patient's question:
On November 27th, the test strip showed positive, with a urine test value of 587. On December 4th, a transvaginal ultrasound and abdominal ultrasound were performed, but no gestational sac was found. On December 17th, an ultrasound detected a 22mm x 21mm x 16mm mass on the right side of the uterus, with a urine test value of 171. The doctor suspected an ectopic pregnancy.Previous treatment history and effectiveness: None.
What kind of help is needed: I have never been pregnant and still want to get pregnant in the future. How should I be treated now? Going to the hospital for delivery was only told to closely monitor the situation dynamically, and nothing else was mentioned. I feel very sad.
Doctor's answer:
The best treatment for ectopic pregnancy is to determine the appropriate treatment based on the situation. When ectopic pregnancy is detected early, chemotherapy drugs can be administered to stop the growth of the fetus developing outside the uterus, preventing rupture caused by its continued growth. When ectopic pregnancy is larger and growing in the fallopian tube, it may cause a rupture and bleeding of the fallopian tube. In such cases, immediate surgery is necessary, as otherwise, it may endanger the life of the pregnant woman. Therefore, the best approach for ectopic pregnancy is early detection and early intervention. As for the impact on fertility, I regret to say that it will inevitably have some effect, though chemotherapy drugs have a relatively lesser impact.
