Patient's question:
I finally got pregnant, but I'm a bit afraid it might be an ectopic pregnancy. Hello doctor, can pregnancy tests detect ectopic pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
The pregnancy test strip you mentioned can only determine how to get pregnant, but it cannot confirm whether it is an ectopic pregnancy. The main diagnostic method for ectopic pregnancy is ultrasound. Additionally, you can have your progesterone and human chorionic gonadotropin levels tested at the hospital. The main symptoms of ectopic pregnancy are missed periods, abdominal pain, and vaginal bleeding. Clinical manifestations combined with laboratory tests can better predict the condition. The above information can be used as a reference.
