Patient's question:
The abdominal pain and the sensation of needing to defecate during ectopic pregnancy occur only when the fallopian tube ruptures, or are also present before the rupture? Is the pain extremely severe with bleeding when it ruptures? What should be done about the abdominal pain and the sensation of needing to defecate during ectopic pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
Symptoms of ectopic pregnancy, abdominal pain: lower abdominal heaviness and a sense of needing to defecate, sometimes severe pain accompanied by profuse sweating. During rupture, patients suddenly feel sharp, tearing-like pain in one side of the lower abdomen, often accompanied by nausea. In most cases, abdominal pain, missed periods, fainting, and bleeding lead to a detailed examination at the hospital, which helps diagnose ectopic pregnancy. Patients face the dangers of ectopic pregnancy, and we should actively conduct examinations and treatments without avoiding medical visits. If ectopic pregnancy does not improve with treatment, it is important to change the treatment plan promptly.
