Patient's question:
I am 20 years old, my last menstrual period was on February 3rd. On March 12th, I went to the hospital for an ultrasound, and there was no gestational sac inside the uterus. The HCG result was 1608. Could I have an ectopic pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
You can focus on monitoring the HCG data to see how it is increasing. If the increase is good, you can still feel a bit more at ease! At 38 days, you can wait a little longer during this period. You need to pay attention not to engage in strenuous activities and also monitor if you have lower back pain, vaginal bleeding, or pain on one side of your lower abdomen. If these symptoms reappear, it is recommended that you go to the hospital for a thorough examination. In addition to treating ectopic pregnancy, it is advised that patients pay attention to their diet in daily life and maintain a pleasant mood at all times to enhance their physical condition and slow down the recovery process.
