Patient's question:
My "good friend" hasn't been around for a couple of weeks. I tested myself with a pregnancy test, and it showed positive. But recently, my stomach has been hurting a lot, in waves. Do you have any symptoms of ectopic pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
Ectopic pregnancy can cause vaginal bleeding accompanied by severe abdominal pain. It is also important to consider abdominal pain caused by uterine contractions. It is recommended that you go to the hospital for a thorough examination. You can have an ultrasound after 50 days of pregnancy to check the growth and development of the gestational sac in the uterus, which can rule out the possibility of ectopic pregnancy. If the abdominal pain is severe, appropriate treatment to support the pregnancy should be administered to prevent miscarriage.In addition to timely treatment for ectopic pregnancy, patients should maintain a positive attitude when facing the disease. Only in this way can they reduce their immunity and their ability to fight the disease. At the same time, they should pay close attention to their dietary care and monitor changes in their symptoms, believing that this will surely drive away ectopic pregnancy.
