During pregnancy, female friends will undergo blood and urine routine tests, which are the most basic examination items. Some women may experience ectopic pregnancy during pregnancy, which is very dangerous, not only prone to heavy bleeding, but also life-threatening. So, can a blood test detect ectopic pregnancy?
It is impossible to detect ectopic pregnancy through blood tests, and other examination methods such as ultrasound must be combined. If there is no gestational sac in the uterine cavity during ultrasound examination and shadows are found in the adnexal area, it can be confirmed as an ectopic pregnancy. At this point, early treatment is necessary, and one can choose to undergo tubal fenestration surgery.
Usually, a blood routine test is required during pregnancy. Pregnant women experience significant changes in their hormones, such as a significant increase in progesterone and hCG levels. If low levels of progesterone and hCG are found after examination, it is important to be alert to ectopic pregnancy and undergo an ultrasound examination as soon as possible.
When an ectopic pregnancy occurs, there will be many symptoms, such as abdominal pain, slight vaginal bleeding, etc., and most ectopic pregnancy patients will feel anal prolapse. If pregnant women have the above symptoms, they should take them seriously because it may be caused by ectopic pregnancy. It is necessary to seek medical attention promptly and cooperate with doctors for active treatment after diagnosis.
