Can ectopic pregnancy be detected with a test strip?

Patient's question:

I haven't had my period for ten days, and I've taken the test more than ten times, it's fine?

Doctor's answer:

Whether it is a normal intrauterine early pregnancy or an ectopic pregnancy, HCG is excreted. Early pregnancy test strips detect the level of HCG in urine to predict pregnancy, and a negative test result indicates no pregnancy (including ectopic pregnancy). The menstrual cycle can be delayed by factors such as mental stress, emotions, and environmental conditions, and a delay within one week is normal. If the delay is less than 10 days or more, after ruling out pregnancy, you can take progesterone and other drugs under the guidance of a doctor to induce menstruation. Ectopic pregnancy can cause significant harm to patients. Once symptoms are detected, it is important to seek medical attention promptly, while also paying attention to dietary issues, focusing on light and nutritious foods. It is hoped that ectopic pregnancy patients can receive professional treatment.
