Can a blood test diagnose ectopic pregnancy?

Patient's question:

I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried about it affecting my fertility, and I'm also extremely sensitive to cold and coldness. Can a blood test diagnose an ectopic pregnancy?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, ectopic pregnancy in the early stage usually has no symptoms. About a month later, there may be abdominal pain and vaginal bleeding. An ultrasound examination is necessary to confirm it. After confirmation, treatment can be chosen based on the specific condition, such as medication for conservative treatment or surgical treatment. During pregnancy, it is best to avoid medication and wait for a while. If the condition continues to worsen, appropriate treatment can be given based on the pregnancy duration. Pay attention to a light diet and maintain a good mood.
