Patient's question:
Hello everyone, I am currently about 40 days pregnant, but since last night, my stomach has been in constant pain, and besides that, there are many blood streaks coming out. I'm afraid it might be an ectopic pregnancy. So, I went to the hospital for an ultrasound, and there was nothing wrong. But I'm still very scared. Can you rule out ectopic pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
Dear inquirer, if you have a history of missed periods and vaginal bleeding, it is essential to rule out the possibility of ectopic pregnancy. In this case, it is recommended to promptly go to the hospital for a color Doppler ultrasound. If the ultrasound diagnosis confirms an intrauterine pregnancy, ectopic pregnancy can be ruled out. If the ultrasound does not show a gestational sac in the uterine cavity, the possibility of ectopic pregnancy cannot be completely ruled out, and regular follow-up examinations will be necessary.
