Patient's question:
Doctor, I have an ectopic pregnancy, and I've been bleeding continuously. The doctor prescribed medication, and I need to go for an ultrasound in a few days to check how much it has reduced. During this period, should I avoid sexual intercourse? What should I pay attention to with ectopic pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
During the treatment for ectopic pregnancy, to avoid any repeated incidents, sexual activity is strictly prohibited during this period. Currently, there is continuous vaginal bleeding. If sexual activity is engaged in now, it may lead to repeated severe inflammation and potentially other infections. Therefore, sexual activity is strictly forbidden at this time. It is recommended that you monitor the amount of vaginal bleeding daily. If the bleeding increases continuously and abdominal pain worsens, you should seek immediate follow-up to avoid delaying the treatment.
