How to determine if it is an ectopic pregnancy?

Patient's question:

Hello doctor, I am 34 years old this year, and I just had a baby recently. I feel very sad about whether I might have an ectopic pregnancy, so I want to ask the doctor, is there any method to confirm if it is an ectopic pregnancy? I hope the doctor can solve my confusion. Thank you!

Doctor's answer:

Is it an ectopic pregnancy? In this case, you need the hospital to conduct a thorough examination using ultrasound. First, if a normal early pregnancy gestational sac is found inside the uterus, this can rule out the possibility of ectopic pregnancy. If a mass is found outside the uterus and there is no fetal heartbeat or embryo, a small tissue sample needs to be taken through a biopsy for examination to determine if it is ectopic pregnancy.
