Is stomach pain a sign of pregnancy or ectopic pregnancy?

Patient's question:

Here is the English translation of the provided text, with the carriage returns remaining unchanged and all other Chinese text translated into English:
"It's been a month since my period hasn't come, and I've also experienced symptoms of abdominal pain again. There's also pain from the vagina down. I'm very worried that it might be due to pregnancy or an ectopic pregnancy. So, is my abdominal pain and missing period a sign of pregnancy or an ectopic pregnancy?"

Doctor's answer:

Because you are currently only experiencing a delayed menstrual period and have not yet undergone a thorough examination to determine if pregnancy is possible, if you are not pregnant, it is very likely a sign of the menstrual period approaching. If this abdominal pain occurs after pregnancy, it could be a sign of miscarriage or ectopic pregnancy. Therefore, you still need to first test to see if you are pregnant. If you are pregnant, you need to be examined by the hospital as soon as possible and receive prenatal care.
