Patient's question:
Recently, my abdomen has been slightly protruding, and it feels warm. My period has been ten days late, and the pregnancy test strips show that I'm not pregnant. What kind of assistance do I need: I feel like I might be pregnant, is it not an ectopic pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
The symptoms of ectopic pregnancy include:1. Abdominal pain: A dull ache in the lower abdomen, a sensation of needing to defecate, sometimes severe pain accompanied by profuse sweating. During rupture, the patient suddenly feels a sharp, tearing pain on one side of the lower abdomen, often accompanied by nausea and vomiting.
2. Amenorrhea: Before the tubal pregnancy miscarriage or rupture, symptoms and signs are not obvious, except for a short-term amenorrhea and early pregnancy manifestations. Sometimes, a one-sided lower abdominal distension and pain may reappear. A careful examination may reveal normal fallopian tubes or swelling.
