About Our Ectopic Pregnancy Ultrasound Scan
Early detection with ultrasound.
At London private ultrasound, we perform Transvaginal ultrasound examinations aimed at detecting ectopic pregnancies as early as the end of the 5th to 6th week of the pregnancy. However, very early pregnancies may not yet show visible signs of ectopic or intrauterine pregnancies. If you are experiencing any of these symptoms and have not had any ultrasound assessment, a transvaginal ultrasound examination may be useful in excluding an ectopic pregnancy.
Ectopic Pregnancy Symptoms:
Sharp, sudden abdominal or pelvic pain
Weakness, dizziness and or fainting
Vaginal bleeding or a brown watery discharge
Shoulder Pain
Pelvic pressure or discomfort
Gastrointestinal symptoms
Nausea
Understanding Conception Process:
During conception, the egg and sperm meet in one of the fallopian tubes adjacent to the uterus. The narrow, thin fallopian tubes guide the sperm towards the ovulated egg, where fertilisation occurs. The resulting blastocyst then travels back to the uterine cavity over 5-6 days, implanting itself into the endometrium lining of the uterus. The uterus provides the ideal environment for pregnancy, supporting fatal development over approximately 9 months.
Risks of Ectopic Pregnancy:
Previous pelvic infections, local adhesions, or anatomical variations can disrupt the implantation process, causing the fertilised egg to implant outside the uterus, resulting in an ectopic pregnancy. Ectopic pregnancies cannot progress normally and pose life-threatening risks. Fortunately, ectopic pregnancies are rare in the UK, and timely treatment can prevent complications.
