Patient's question:
Every month my period is early, this month it should be on the 6th. It hasn't come yet. But I've taken a test and it hasn't been positive. Moreover, my breasts are still as swollen as when it was coming, and my lower abdomen always hurts. A few days ago I took progesterone, but today is the 12th and it still hasn't come. Why is this? Could it be an ectopic pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
Concerned about ectopic pregnancy, it is recommended to have a pregnancy test positive after 6 weeks of amenorrhea. Ultrasound examination or laparoscopy can help confirm the diagnosis. The symptoms of ectopic pregnancy are often atypical, typically including vaginal bleeding and abdominal pain. For severe cases of ectopic pregnancy, it is advised to seek medical attention promptly and follow the doctor's guidance for timely treatment. Avoid blindly relying on advertisements or over-the-counter medications, as this may worsen the condition. The above advice is for reference only. It is hoped that the above information can assist you. Thank you.
