Patient's question:
I suspect there may be an ectopic pregnancy, but I don't have time to go to the hospital for a test. Can an ectopic pregnancy test strip detect it?Doctor's answer:
Hello, you also have an ectopic pregnancy now. In this case, it cannot be detected using a pregnancy test strip. Pregnancy test strips are mainly used to determine if you are pregnant. As for whether this pregnancy is ectopic or intrauterine, it cannot be determined. You can go to the hospital for an ultrasound or a test for progesterone and human chorionic gonadotropin. These two methods can help determine if it is an ectopic pregnancy.
