Patient's question:
This month, I didn't get my period, so I bought a test kit and the result was positive. Then I went to the hospital for a detailed examination. The doctor said it was an ectopic pregnancy. I want to know how to treat ectopic pregnancy conservatively?Doctor's answer:
Ectopic pregnancy in the early stage is primarily characterized by irregular vaginal bleeding after a missed period. Ultrasound examination shows no pregnancy in the uterine cavity. There are two conservative methods for treating ectopic pregnancy. One is conservative rescue, which involves intramuscular injection of methotrexate to destroy the embryo before the ectopic pregnancy ruptures and the embryo fully develops. The other is laparoscopic surgery, which is a minimally invasive procedure and also a conservative treatment method. It has the advantages of less psychological trauma, rapid postoperative recovery, and fewer surgical complications.
