Find out pregnancy on ultrasound.
With a delay in menstruation, girls always have a question: how can you find out on an ultrasound scan - is there a pregnancy or not? There are various ways to clarify the situation in the short term, for example, well-known pharmacy tests or taking a blood test for hCG, which can be done from the first day of the absence of menstruation at the right time. The only reliable method for determining pregnancy in the early stages is pelvic ultrasound. On what day it is worth making this diagnosis, which ultrasound is better to choose, we will consider in this material.
It’s better to make an ultrasound for pregnancy not from the first day of delay, I’m a little later, somewhere from the third to fifth - this will allow you to accurately establish the presence of a fetal egg, its location (uterine or ectopic), and also find out the timing. The fact is that if you conduct an hCG blood test, then its result will be positive from the 1st day of the absence of menstruation, but an ultrasound scan at this time may not be completely informative.
