Once a woman is diagnosed with pregnancy, the hospital will first check whether the pregnant woman is an intrauterine pregnancy, because if an ectopic pregnancy is detected without early treatment, it will cause great damage to the body. Many women do not know how to check for ectopic pregnancy. So, what is the normal HCG for ectopic pregnancy?
The HCG value of ectopic pregnancy is the same as that of intrauterine pregnancy, because only the position where the fertilized egg is implanted is different, while the early development of the fertilized egg is the same, so the HCG values in blood and urine are the same.
In normal pregnancy, the HCG value doubles every two days, which means that the HCG value after two days should usually be in the range of 500-1000. This indicates that the embryo is developing normally, not an ectopic pregnancy; If the HCG value slowly increases or decreases, there is a greater risk of ectopic pregnancy in this situation, and attention should be paid.
The HCG value can be used as a diagnostic basis for ectopic pregnancy, but the diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy should be based on the results of further examination. Regardless of the possibility of ectopic pregnancy, the HCG value should be determined through continuous examination. In the first three months, the blood HCG monitoring of normal pregnancy doubled, but ectopic pregnancy did not show this symptom and can be used as one of the bases for identification. Laparoscopic examination is the gold standard for diagnosing ectopic pregnancy, which can be performed simultaneously with the diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy.
