Patient's question:
Hello, I've had my period for over ten days, but it hasn't stopped. I carefully checked and found I'm pregnant. I'm quite worried. Could it be an ectopic pregnancy if I have my period and am pregnant?Doctor's answer:
In your case, it is possible that you might have an ectopic pregnancy. Generally, after 6 weeks of pregnancy, it can be detected through a detailed ultrasound examination. If you have been pregnant for 6 weeks and the examination does not show a gestational sac, it is likely that you have an ectopic pregnancy. It is recommended that you estimate the time and undergo a prompt examination to face the risks of ectopic pregnancy. We should adhere to the principle of symptomatic treatment in a timely manner and should not avoid seeking medical attention. If the ectopic pregnancy is not treated effectively, it is necessary to promptly adjust the treatment plan.
