Today to confirm if it is an ectopic pregnancy?

Patient's question:

Today confirmed it's not an ectopic pregnancy. The doctor said it was too small to give medication abortion and asked me to come back in a few days for another ultrasound. Is it really that the baby is too small?

Doctor's answer:

Medical abortion is effective for early pregnancy within 49 days, but it should not be too early or too late. In your uterus, there is still a tiny, non-echoic structure. Wait about a week and then have an ultrasound to confirm the size of the gestational sac before taking medication. For patients, if ectopic pregnancy is severe, immediate symptomatic treatment and appropriate medication are necessary. Otherwise, it may lead to a recurrence of ectopic pregnancy. Additionally, patients should pay attention to their diet and psychological care. I hope the answers to these questions can help everyone. Thank you.
