How to effectively rule out ectopic pregnancy?

Patient's question:

My cousin, she's always daydreaming. She sees that others are experiencing ectopic pregnancy, and she thinks that her child must also be ectopic pregnancy. How do pregnant women rule out ectopic pregnancy? What are the differences between ectopic pregnancy and normal pregnancy? Should ectopic pregnancy be terminated?

Doctor's answer:

According to the situation you described, if your sister is worried that she might also have an ectopic pregnancy, she can take her to the hospital for a check-up with a color Doppler ultrasound. A color Doppler ultrasound can detect this. A normal pregnancy embryo is inside the uterus, while an ectopic pregnancy embryo is outside the uterus. An ectopic pregnancy cannot be allowed to continue early pregnancy, as it is prone to rupture and bleeding, which can pose a life-threatening risk, and early pregnancy needs to be terminated.
