Patient's question:
I recently had a thorough examination for ectopic pregnancy. I would like to know how long the strict treatment for ectopic pregnancy usually takes?Doctor's answer:
Treatment for ectopic pregnancy requires considering an individual's constitution and how the medicine is metabolized. If the ectopic pregnancy itself is not severe, with relatively low values and good metabolization effects, it may be possible to successfully treat it within a week. If the medicine metabolizes poorly and the values decrease slowly, it may take two or three weeks. If, after medication, the hCG values do not decrease, and the strict treatment is unlikely to succeed, surgery may be necessary.
