Patient's question:
Late by two days. The period came with very little blood, which was dark brown. There's still some pain in the lower abdomen. I went to the hospital for a thorough check-up. They did an ultrasound. The outline was smooth. The myometrium had normal echo texture, endometrium on the left side. It was about 2.4 cm thick. The examination suggested endometrial thickening. They also took blood tests. Human chorionic gonadotropin-BETA: 281.7 (Reference range: 0.00-3.00). Sample status: normal. What kind of help do I need: Am I experiencing an ectopic pregnancy? What should I do?Doctor's answer:
Hello, your blood test results indicate pregnancy. The ultrasound examination may not have detected a gestational sac due to it being too early. You have been experiencing continuous spotting, which may be a sign of threatened miscarriage or ectopic pregnancy. It is recommended that you rest more and visit the hospital in a few days for further examination, including an ultrasound and blood test. If you experience severe abdominal pain or increased spotting, it is important to go to the hospital immediately. For patients with ectopic pregnancy, in addition to timely treatment, it is also crucial to pay attention to self-care.
