How long does it take to confirm an ectopic pregnancy?

Patient's question:

I had my period delayed by a week this time. The doctor did a blood test for me and said I was pregnant. Then I had my period again. Today, I went for a thorough check-up, and the doctor said it wasn't certain yet, mentioning the possibility of an ectopic pregnancy. I want to know how long it takes for the fertilized egg to reach the uterus.

Doctor's answer:

I'm glad to help you clarify your doubts! You have a question about pregnancy testing. Actually, if you have the above situation, if your menstrual cycle has been irregular before, it may take longer. Suggestions: Currently, you should focus and carefully observe. You can re-examine with a B after one week to look for a gestational sac. After confirming it, you can better treat it. In addition to regular treatment for ectopic pregnancy, patients also need to pay attention to nursing aspects, such as proper diet and maintaining a cheerful mood. At the same time, patients should also pay attention to choosing a regular hospital for treatment, so they can get a good therapeutic effect.
