How long does it take to detect an ectopic pregnancy?

Patient's question:

I recently found out that I'm pregnant, but sometimes I have stomach pain and feel uncomfortable in my abdomen. It comes in waves sometimes, and other times it doesn't. I'm very worried about it affecting the fetus, so I had my husband accompany me to the hospital for a check-up. The doctor said I have an ectopic pregnancy.
What kind of help do I need: How long can ectopic pregnancy be detected?

Doctor's answer:

Ectopic pregnancy needs to be identified around 30 days. The main cause of ectopic pregnancy is the total amount of fallopian tubes, such as: fallopian tube blockage, stenosis, being too long or too short, etc. Ectopic pregnancy is a relatively dangerous disease that can be life-threatening, so once it is diagnosed, most cases are treated with surgery. The main symptom of ectopic pregnancy is a small amount of vaginal bleeding after a missed period. Diagnostic curettage can be used to confirm whether it is ectopic pregnancy.
