Patient's question:
I plan to get pregnant this year, so I haven't taken any contraceptive measures. This month, my period has lasted for 6 days and hasn't ended yet. Usually, it's about 3-4 days. Since I'm preparing for pregnancy, I've been paying close attention to gynecological issues. I quickly went to the hospital for a thorough check-up, and they said I had an ectopic pregnancy. Can ectopic pregnancy be treated with medication to terminate the pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
Ectopic pregnancy cannot be treated with medication abortion. Ectopic pregnancy must be surgically treated before 45 days. Delaying treatment can lead to abdominal pain and severe bleeding. After surgery, oral medications to replenish qi and nourish blood can be taken. Pay attention to diet, drink plenty of water, and eat easily digestible foods. Avoid foods with strong, cold, hard, and spicy foods. Eat small meals frequently, maintain regular eating and drinking habits, and pay attention to hygiene. Use wipes daily, soak feet in hot water every night, maintain a regular routine, and ensure sufficient deep sleep.
