Pregnancy is not a small matter, it is a happy news for the whole family. However, many pregnant women in life cannot be happy because their pregnancy situation is different from others, unfortunately it is an ectopic pregnancy. It is recommended that every woman undergo timely screening after pregnancy. How can ectopic pregnancy be detected?
There are many methods for detecting ectopic pregnancy, and for pregnant women with fewer days of pregnancy, they can determine whether it is an ectopic pregnancy by testing their blood HCG. Under normal intrauterine pregnancy, the blood HCG level in the pregnant woman's body will significantly increase, and the growth rate will be very fast, basically doubling every other day. If there is no significant change in blood HCG value or the growth rate is slow, it may be an ectopic pregnancy.
For pregnant women who are already six or seven weeks pregnant, the diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy can be made through ultrasound examination. The ultrasonic examination method is the most intuitive and accurate. If no gestational sac is seen in the uterus, but in the fallopian tubes or other parts of the abdominal cavity, it indicates an ectopic pregnancy.
In addition, ectopic pregnancy can also cause some clinical symptoms, such as abdominal pain and vaginal bleeding. If pregnant women often experience such symptoms during early pregnancy, they must actively go to the hospital for examination. After investigation, it is confirmed that it is not an ectopic pregnancy, and the pregnant woman can rest assured about raising the fetus. If it is an ectopic pregnancy, it should be treated promptly.
