How can you rule out ectopic pregnancy early?

Patient's question:

Recently, while chatting and gossiping with my close friends, we talked about a friend who, due to an unknown ectopic pregnancy, experienced a ruptured fallopian tube and lost too much blood, fainting and being admitted to the hospital. We quickly called the gynecology emergency! It's said that the situation was very critical, and she received several bags of blood before being out of danger. How can one be sure in advance that they don't have an ectopic pregnancy?

Doctor's answer:

If menstrual delay occurs again in the early stages of pregnancy, you can use a pregnancy test kit for testing. You can also go to the hospital for a blood hCG check. Generally, the test results can indicate the possibility of ectopic pregnancy, usually around the 50th day of pregnancy. You can go to the hospital for an ultrasound check, which can completely rule out ectopic pregnancy. After pregnancy, do not overworry and pay attention to dietary nutrition. Make sure to go to the hospital for follow-up checks on time.
