Patient's question:
On December 11, 2018, ectopic pregnancy was diagnosed. After rigorous hospital treatment, hCG levels dropped from an initial 2400 to 64. However, ultrasound shows the mass hasn't shrunk. This morning, the patient has already experienced occasional cramping in the lower abdomen. What could be the reason?Doctor's answer:
Ectopic pregnancy refers to an abnormal pregnancy process where the fertilized egg implants and develops outside the uterine cavity. For ectopic pregnancy treated conservatively, if there is abdominal pain for 20 days, it is important to check whether there are signs of bleeding. If it is mild, there is no need to worry. It is best to go to the hospital for a follow-up check to see how the body is doing. When treating ectopic pregnancy conservatively, it is also necessary to check whether the blood values have returned to normal. If they have returned to normal, it can be.
