In the case of a regular menstrual cycle, if menstruation is suddenly delayed for more than a week without coming, the probability of pregnancy is relatively high. Women should undergo relevant examinations as soon as possible after pregnancy to see if the pregnancy is normal, mainly to determine whether the gestational sac is in the uterus. So, how to check if there is an ectopic pregnancy?
Ectopic pregnancy is a serious symptom for women. If not treated in a timely manner, it may lead to heavy bleeding and even threaten women's life safety. Once pregnant, it is important to promptly determine the position of the gestational sac. Checking for ectopic pregnancy can be done through a blood test for HCG. If the HCG value continues to rise slowly, it is generally considered that there is a high possibility of ectopic pregnancy.
After pregnancy, women's HCG values increase significantly in the early stages of pregnancy, possibly doubling due to the influence of hormones and estrogen in the body. But once ectopic pregnancy occurs, the change in HCG values will not be particularly significant, and the rising values will also be relatively low. Suffering from ectopic pregnancy, the first thing to do is to communicate with the doctor about the treatment method.
If the duration of pregnancy is relatively short, conservative treatment can be adopted for ectopic pregnancy, and the harm to women's health will also be relatively small. If the situation is already quite serious, timely hospitalization treatment is necessary, usually through surgery.
