Patient's question:
Now I am 1 month pregnant, but the condition of my abdomen is not very normal. I suspect it might be an ectopic pregnancy. What are the symptoms of ectopic pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
The clinical diagnostic symptoms of ectopic pregnancy are:1. History of missed periods (80% of patients have a missed period history, while 20% do not);
2. Lower abdominal pain (prevalence rate of 90%);
3. Vaginal bleeding;
4. Fainting or shock;
5. Pelvic masses.
If ectopic pregnancy is suspected, it is highly recommended to take it seriously and seek immediate medical attention at a formal hospital's gynecology and obstetrics department. Further diagnosis should be confirmed by combining blood hCG tests and gynecological ultrasound evaluations.
If ectopic pregnancy is diagnosed, hospitalization and timely treatment are necessary.
