Is it ectopic pregnancy now, can it be treated with medication?

Patient's question:

The anterior uterine corpus is smaller with a clear contour. An gestational sac is observed in the uterine cavity, measuring approximately 8mm-5mm. No embryonic pole or fetal heartbeat is seen. No abnormal echoes are detected in the adnexa. The diagnosis is intrauterine pregnancy at 5 weeks. However, I sometimes experience intermittent pain in my lower abdomen. Could this be an ectopic pregnancy? Is medical abortion still an option?

Doctor's answer:

You have undergone a thorough ultrasound examination and found that the uterus is enlarged with a gestational sac inside, so it should be possible to remove the ectopic pregnancy. If you are prepared for a miscarriage, you can choose medication abortion. It is recommended to undergo medication abortion under the guidance of a doctor. After the abortion, pay close attention to monitoring the vaginal bleeding, rest properly, avoid overexertion, and refrain from sexual activity for one month. For severe cases of ectopic pregnancy, it is advised to seek immediate medical attention and follow the doctor's advice for prompt treatment. Avoid blindly relying on advertisements for medication, as this may worsen the condition.
