Patient's question:
I got my period on March 10th and it hasn't come yet. I'm a bit worried that I might be pregnant. The test strips aren't showing anything, and I've been having some stomach pain for the past two days. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
Women with ectopic pregnancy have lower levels of hCG in their bodies compared to normal early pregnancy women, so the test paper may not detect it. It is recommended to go to the hospital to measure blood hCG using a more sensitive radioimmunoassay method and combine it with a detailed ultrasound examination to strive for timely diagnosis.In addition, during the treatment of ectopic pregnancy, in addition to immediate medical treatment, the patient's dietary condition and psychological state are also particularly important. The patient must avoid excessive mental stress and anxiety to prevent unnecessary interference with the complete recovery from ectopic pregnancy.
