Patient's question:
What should be noted about ectopic pregnancy, must ectopic pregnancy be surgically treated, what should be done about ectopic pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
An ectopic pregnancy generally requires hospitalization once confirmed. Precautions should follow medical advice, and surgery is not necessarily required. If it is in the early stage and the gestational sac is not visible, medication-based treatment can also be considered, primarily to terminate the pregnancy. Medications such as mifepristone tablets or methotrexate can be used. After medication, a follow-up hCG test is conducted. If the hCG levels drop rapidly, the medication treatment is considered successful. If the gestational sac is already visible or the hCG levels are too high, treatment via laparoscopy is required.
