Patient's question:
41, has been treated with Chinese and Western medicine for secondary infertility, with obstruction in the interstitial part of the right fallopian tube and patency on the left. For three consecutive months in September, the right side experienced menopause. The last menstrual period was on August 19, and on September 2, an ultrasound revealed a right follicle size of 1511. There was only one day of intercourse between the 20th and 22nd, but three consecutive urine tests on the 20th, 21st, and 22nd showed weakly positive results. On the 22nd, a blood test detected HCG at 632.1 and progesterone at 57.39. Is there a high possibility of ectopic pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
You are now confirmed to be pregnant. If you have always had menstruation on the right side, then the likelihood of this being an ectopic pregnancy is very high. Your pregnancy is currently at an early stage, and an ultrasound may not detect it. Blood tests for HCG are more accurate. It is recommended to take a blood test for HCG on the 24th, one day later, and compare the results with the 22nd. If it is more than 66% higher than the previous result, it can be trusted to be an intrauterine pregnancy. If it is more than 66% higher, the likelihood of ectopic pregnancy is relatively high. Ectopic pregnancy poses significant harm to patients. Once symptoms are detected, it is important to seek medical attention promptly. At the same time, attention should be paid to dietary issues, with light and simple foods as the foundation. We hope that ectopic pregnancy patients can receive professional treatment.
