Ectopic pregnancy is an abnormal symptom that causes panic among people. It is necessary to terminate the pregnancy in a timely manner to ensure the health of women. During pregnancy, it is essential to conduct thorough screening. If some pregnant women find ovarian lumps during examination, is it necessarily an ectopic pregnancy?
Having ovarian masses may not necessarily be caused by ectopic pregnancy, but can also be due to abnormalities caused by corpus luteum hematoma, a type of hematoma formed after ovulation in the ovary. As long as there is no echo dark area in the uterus, it is considered intrauterine pregnancy. If the examination is conducted 5-7 days later and there is a significant increase in the gestational sac, it can be determined to be an intrauterine pregnancy. If HCG is greater than 2000mIU/lBHCG and the gestational sac cannot be seen, ectopic pregnancy can be considered.
If a lump is found in the ovary during ultrasound examination, it is necessary to further perform blood tests to accurately determine whether it is an ectopic pregnancy. If pregnancy is found after blood testing and ovarian lumps are detected during ultrasound examination, it may be caused by ectopic pregnancy. But if pregnancy is not detected through blood tests, then the appearance of ovarian lumps is not caused by ectopic pregnancy.
There are many symptoms of ectopic pregnancy, such as amenorrhea, abdominal pain, vaginal bleeding, and other abnormalities. If these abnormal symptoms are found during pregnancy, it is necessary to undergo early examination to rule out whether it is caused by ectopic pregnancy and receive reasonable treatment.
