Patient's question:
Doctor, hello. I am more than 40 days pregnant. I have had an ultrasound, but it hasn't shown anything. The doctor said there is no exclusion of ectopic pregnancy. I searched online for the symptoms of ectopic pregnancy, and now I have lower abdominal pain, but my vagina hasn't broken. The pregnancy test stick is also weakly positive. How can you carefully check if it is ectopic pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
Generally speaking, ectopic pregnancy can manifest as symptoms such as abdominal pain and vaginal bleeding. If it ruptures, there will be sudden and severe pain on one side of the lower abdomen. It is recommended to have a follow-up ultrasound after one week to determine if it is an intrauterine or ectopic pregnancy. Additionally, if it is ectopic pregnancy, the blood HCG level will not double every other day, which can also be used as an auxiliary diagnostic method.In addition, during the treatment of ectopic pregnancy, in addition to immediate medical treatment, the patient's dietary condition and psychological state are also particularly important. The patient must always maintain a positive mood and eat appropriately to avoid unnecessary impacts on the recovery of ectopic pregnancy.
