How great is the chance of ectopic pregnancy? How can you tell if it is?

Patient's question:

42 days of amenorrhea, vaginal ultrasound cannot see a gestational sac, no abnormalities in the adnexal area, blood test HCG on February 22nd was 174, on February 24th was 267. No vaginal tearing, no significant abdominal pain. How high does the HCG value need to be to see it on ultrasound? What should I do?

Doctor's answer:

Your condition is caused by vaginal inflammation. It is recommended to take metronidazole orally and use potassium permanganate for external washing. Pay attention to strictly prohibiting washing during menstruation. It is better to treat with your sexual partner. If the effect is not satisfactory, then have a bacterial culture. For severe ectopic pregnancy patients, it is recommended to seek medical attention immediately and treat according to the doctor's advice. Do not use medication blindly to avoid worsening the condition. The above suggestions are for reference only. It is hoped that the above answer can help you. Thank you.
