Patient's question:
I found out two days ago that I'm pregnant. Today, I experienced abdominal pain again. Should I go to the hospital for a thorough check-up, or just wait?Doctor's answer:
Yes, the pregnancy is too short to be accurately checked for ectopic pregnancy. Early ectopic pregnancy is not easy to detect, and if it ruptures again, it can easily lead to severe bleeding, which may cause shock or even threaten life safety. Therefore, if abdominal pain, bleeding, or fainting occurs during early pregnancy, it is important to seek medical attention promptly for examination and treatment. For ectopic pregnancy, in addition to symptomatic treatment, it is also necessary to pay attention to personal care. For example, it is important to maintain good hygiene in the private area and avoid sexual activity during medication.
