Many women are interested in the question of whether the test will show an ectopic pregnancy or not. Doctors say that the test results for an ectopic pregnancy will be positive, since the determination mechanism depends on the amount of human chorionic gonadotropin in the urine. With any pregnancy, the amount of this hormone increases. But it is impossible to reliably determine exactly where the fetal egg was attached using the test. It is also impossible to determine such a pathology only on the basis of symptoms in the early stages of gestation.
After the fertilized egg is attached to the walls of the fallopian tube, the same symptoms appear as in the normal physiological process. Menstruation stops, the mammary glands increase in size and become painful, feel sick, and there are bouts of dizziness.
A month after the fetal egg is attached to the walls of the tube, it is damaged. This is preceded by aching or pulling pain in the lower abdomen, discharge from the vagina appears mixed with blood, during intimacy there is discomfort and pain. You can not ignore such symptoms, it is important to visit a gynecologist as soon as possible. Only with the help of ultrasound can such a pathology be detected and appropriate measures taken before the fallopian tube ruptures with severe bleeding.
An ectopic pregnancy is not detected on the test. Sometimes the second line on the test may not be as bright as the first.
