Some women may experience ectopic pregnancy after pregnancy, which is very dangerous. If not treated in a timely manner, it can cause massive bleeding and even endanger life. Therefore, female friends who become pregnant must undergo examinations to rule out the possibility of ectopic pregnancy. So, how long can ectopic pregnancy be detected?
If it is an ectopic pregnancy, it can be detected around 40 days of pregnancy in women. Once confirmed as an ectopic pregnancy, timely treatment is necessary, such as tubal fenestration surgery or removal of the fallopian tubes. Everyone should be aware that after undergoing fallopian tube fenestration surgery, the possibility of ectopic pregnancy is still high when pregnant again.
After women experience ectopic pregnancy, they will have more obvious symptoms. The vast majority of ectopic pregnancy patients will have irregular bleeding symptoms, and often feel abdominal pain, accompanied by a feeling of anal prolapse. However, there are also a few women who have no abnormal symptoms during ectopic pregnancy.
The confirmation of ectopic pregnancy cannot be judged solely based on symptoms, and it is necessary to go to the hospital for examination. Urinalysis can only determine whether a woman is pregnant, but cannot detect ectopic pregnancy. Pregnant women need to undergo a B-ultrasound examination and a blood HOG value test to obtain a relatively accurate result, with an accuracy rate of over 90%.
