If you suspect an ectopic pregnancy, what should you do?

Patient's question:

I used to have my period always delayed, but this time after having sex with my husband, it hasn't come yet. I wonder if I might be pregnant. However, after testing, it wasn't pregnancy. So I want to know if it could be an ectopic pregnancy?

Doctor's answer:

Did you use a pregnancy test? Then how long has your period been delayed? If it's delayed compared to usual, I suggest you go to the hospital to check your urine HCG. This can help confirm whether you might be pregnant.
In addition, during the treatment for ectopic pregnancy, besides timely medical treatment, the patient's dietary condition and mental state are also crucial. It's essential to prevent excessive stress and anxiety, as this could negatively impact the complete recovery from ectopic pregnancy.
