Patient's question:
53 days, amenorrhea, county hospital, urine test not pregnantDoctor's answer:
Is it an ectopic pregnancy? You can do an early pregnancy test for HCG. If it's positive and there's no gestational sac found in the uterine cavity during an abdominal ultrasound, it's usually necessary to consider the possibility of an ectopic pregnancy. However, first, note that it's possible the gestational sac is too small to be detected. If no gestational sac or other abnormalities are found, a follow-up check should be done in 7 days. The duration of pregnancy is calculated from the first day of the last menstrual period. Ectopic pregnancy usually ruptures around the 40th day of pregnancy. If there's a dull pain in the right lower abdomen, it could be a symptom of an ectopic pregnancy. You can also go to the hospital for a posterior fornix puncture to confirm the diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy.
