Patient's question:
I am 24 years old. I just had a thorough check and found out it's an ectopic pregnancy. I'm a bit confused. Can ectopic pregnancy be treated with medication in the early stages?Doctor's answer:
I'm glad to help you clarify your questions. If it has been confirmed that you are pregnant and the diagnosis is ectopic pregnancy, then in this case, you cannot have an induced abortion. There are two methods to terminate ectopic pregnancy: one is to decide on conservative treatment, which means if there is no recurrence of the gestational sac rupture and the hCG level is below 2000, you can consider using anesthesia drugs to force the ectopic pregnancy's gestational sac to gradually dissolve. The other method is to have surgery to remove the ectopic pregnancy's gestational sac to terminate the pregnancy.
