Patient's question:
I tested positive for hCG 142.67 in a urine test, but an ultrasound showed normal results. However, the early pregnancy test has always shown two lines. Over the past two days, I've been experiencing a sensation of fullness and pressure in my rectum. Hello, could I be experiencing an ectopic pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
The symptoms of ectopic pregnancy are as follows: sudden sharp pain in the lower abdomen, but the amount and duration of bleeding vary from person to person. Initially, the bleeding is usually minimal. When the fertilized egg implants in the fallopian tube and ruptures, it can lead to heavy bleeding. In addition to vaginal bleeding, there may also be abdominal swelling and pain, initially characterized by cramping in the lower abdomen. Sometimes, there may also be a feeling of pressure in the rectum. If your condition is only a slight sensation of fullness in the rectum, it is difficult to determine whether it is ectopic pregnancy. It is recommended to have another check-up within a week to confirm if it is ectopic pregnancy.Patients with ectopic pregnancy can, while understanding standard medical treatment, also use dietary therapy as a supplementary treatment. In daily diet, it is essential to avoid extreme hunger or overeating, and never indulge in excessive consumption.
