What Causes Abdominal Pain While You Are Pregnant?
It is about this Doctor to whom i presented myself when a suspected an ectopic pregnancy. The pregnancy was two months old but he replied that there was early signs of intrauterine pregnancy with endometrial decidual reaction detected. Endometrial thickness measured 3.2x2.7 and no endometrial fluid seen. BOTH ADNEXAE APPEAR NORMAL. TWO WEEKS LATER I HAD A PAIN IN MY ABNOMINAL AND THE SAME DOCTOR TOLD ME THAT I HAD AN ECTOPIC PREGNANCY WHICH HAD RUPTURED .how could this heve happened?

Hi
I have gone through your complaints.early stages only endometrial decidual reaction and later sac after implantation are seen in intrauterine pregnancy.but in ectopic pregnancy endometrial decidual reaction wil be there but no sac or fetus.it wil be somewhere outside endometrial cavity.as you are saying after 2 wks it diagnosed as ectopic with earlier normal scan it might be ectopic in tube near uterus.some times do happenlike this.ectopics difficult to detect sometimes that too of short duration.
thank you
