Patient's question:
Can doctors use pregnancy test strips to detect ectopic pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
This situation can only be described as pregnancy. However, it is not possible to determine if there is an ectopic pregnancy. Pay attention to the HCG test and the follow-up local color Doppler ultrasound. Ectopic pregnancy refers to any pregnancy that occurs outside the uterus, while ectopic pregnancy refers to a pregnancy where the fertilized egg is located outside the normal implantation site, including cervical pregnancy, intramural uterine pregnancy, and cornual pregnancy, etc. Ectopic pregnancy is very dangerous. Once there is a missed period, abdominal pain accompanied by vaginal bleeding, it is necessary to go to the hospital immediately for examination and confirmation.
