Patient's question:
Patient Age: Last menstrual period on January 13, 2011. Had sexual intercourse on the morning of January 30. Had sexual intercourse again on the evening of January 31 and did not have intercourse afterward. On the morning of February 8, early pregnancy test result (9 days after ovulation). It gradually deepened. Starting from February 10, began taking progesterone 40 mg. Prescribed a 10-day supply. On February 14, blood test results showed progesterone 60, HCG 199. On February 15, early pregnancy test showed a weak positive result. On February 16, HCG was 417. On February 19, early pregnancy test was close to a strong positive result. On February 20, early pregnancy test result became faint. On February 21, blood HCG was 467.9.Doctor's answer:
Hello, you previously had an ectopic pregnancy. Is your fallopian tube open now? Have you had your fallopian tubes checked? If they are not open, it can still easily cause an ectopic pregnancy. If you haven't had your period this time, I suggest you continue to test for HCG. Your current HCG value is still relatively low. Once pregnancy is confirmed, you can take progesterone. Don't use progesterone before confirming pregnancy, as this can affect the detection of early pregnancy tests. Good luck with your pregnancy!
