What situations are considered ectopic pregnancy?

Patient's question:

I'd like to ask, do I have an ectopic pregnancy or is it just simple menstrual irregularity?

Doctor's answer:

Hello. According to your information, a urine pregnancy test can be performed for a thorough check. Alternatively, you can go to the hospital to have blood drawn to check hCG levels to confirm pregnancy. If pregnancy is suspected, ectopic pregnancy may cause vaginal bleeding and abdominal pain. Irregular menstruation is generally characterized by vaginal bleeding. An ultrasound examination can confirm the diagnosis. There are many treatment methods for ectopic pregnancy, but since the symptoms of patients vary, the treatment methods used will also differ. Therefore, patients need to undergo timely and thorough examination and diagnosis to receive symptomatic treatment.
