How to identify the symptoms of ectopic pregnancy

Ectopic pregnancy is an extremely dangerous disease. If the patient fails to detect the existence of ectopic pregnancy early, the fetus will continue to grow over time. When it grows to a certain size, it may rupture and cause heavy bleeding. Therefore, it is particularly important to learn to identify the symptoms of ectopic pregnancy.

Generally, ectopic pregnancy ruptures when the pregnancy is more than 40 days. If there is a dull pain in the right lower abdomen, it may be a sign of ectopic pregnancy. You can also go to the hospital for a posterior uterine fornix puncture to confirm the diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy. The pregnancy time is calculated from the first day of the last menstrual period.

Symptoms of ectopic pregnancy

1. Amenorrhea: Generally, before the miscarriage or rupture of tubal pregnancy, the symptoms and signs are not very obvious. In addition to short-term amenorrhea and pregnancy symptoms, sometimes there is bloating and pain in one side of the lower abdomen.

2. Abdominal pain: manifested as a heavy pain in the lower abdomen, a feeling of defecation, sometimes severe pain, accompanied by cold sweat, and nausea and vomiting.

3. Vaginal bleeding: If irregular vaginal bleeding occurs, it is usually spot-like, dark brown, and small in amount, not exceeding the amount of menstruation. Abdominal pain accompanied by vaginal bleeding is often a sign of fetal damage. If there is only abdominal pain but no vaginal bleeding, it is usually due to continued fetal survival or abdominal pregnancy, so you should be vigilant.

4. Syncope and shock: Acute bleeding symptoms in the abdominal cavity will cause a decrease in blood volume and severe abdominal pain. Mild cases may result in syncope, while severe cases may result in shock.

5. Other symptoms: What are the symptoms of early ectopic pregnancy? There may be symptoms of nausea, vomiting, and frequent urination.
