How long does it take to detect ectopic pregnancy?

Patient's question:

How long can ectopic pregnancy be detected? What should be done immediately after ectopic pregnancy is detected?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, for women who have had sexual activity and are diagnosed with an ectopic pregnancy, it is generally necessary to go to the hospital for a thorough examination around 40 days after their period. If there is no gestational sac in the uterine cavity, along with obvious one-sided abdominal pain, or vaginal leakage with broken skin and blood levels that are not too high, it can basically be diagnosed. After diagnosis, it is essential to follow the doctor's advice for hospitalization and treatment. Surgical intervention or strict medication treatment can be considered.
