Patient's question:
Detailed medical condition and consultation purpose: On the 26th of last month, my husband and I had sexual intercourse. Today, I went to the hospital for a check-up and confirmed that I am pregnant.However, during the ultrasound, nothing was seen in the uterus!
What is going on?
Doctor's answer:
Hello, the principle of using a test strip to detect pregnancy is based on measuring the concentration of a specific hormone secreted in the body during pregnancy. It is performed before an ultrasound test. That is to say, in the early stages of pregnancy, a test strip can detect it, but it may not be visible on an ultrasound. The occurrence of gynecological examinations not only affects women's health but also leads to the emergence of gynecological diseases. Therefore, it is best to undergo a vaginal examination in the gynecology department of a hospital to identify the cause and then receive targeted treatment. In daily life, it is important to drink more water and pay attention to personal hygiene.
