Patient's question:
I missed my period by almost a week, so I bought a pregnancy test and found out I'm pregnant. But recently, I've been having stomach pain, so I went to the hospital for a thorough examination. The doctor said I have an ectopic pregnancy. How is ectopic pregnancy detected through a thorough examination?Doctor's answer:
Okay, here is the translation, following your instructions:It's possible to do a careful HCG check. If it's positive and an abdominal ultrasound doesn't reveal an intrauterine gestational sac, it's generally necessary to consider the possibility of an ectopic pregnancy. However, first that the gestational sac might be too small to be found. If there's no gestational sac, recheck AC or other abnormalities in 7 days. Ectopic pregnancy usually ruptures after the early pregnancy is over 40 days. If there's right lower abdominal pain, it might be a sign of ectopic pregnancy. It's also possible to go to the hospital to perform a posterior vaginal culdocentesis to confirm a diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy. The recurrence of ectopic pregnancy is often related to many previous miscarriages, pelvic inflammation, especially tubal inflammation. The most common type of ectopic pregnancy is tubal pregnancy.
