Is it better to do B-ultrasound or vaginal ultrasound to check for ectopic pregnancy?

B-ultrasound generally refers to abdominal B-ultrasound examination, and vaginal ultrasound generally refers to vaginal ultrasound examination. Ectopic pregnancy is also called ectopic pregnancy in clinical practice. Vaginal ultrasound examination is generally chosen to check for ectopic pregnancy, because vaginal ultrasound examination can usually see the pelvic condition more clearly. However, in some emergency visits, there may not be conditions for vaginal ultrasound. Abdominal B-ultrasound examination can also be performed. Some abdominal B-ultrasound examinations may also clearly show ectopic pregnancy masses. The specific situation is related to the patient's disease condition, the experience of the examining doctor, the resolution of the ultrasound machine, etc.

In case of suspected ectopic pregnancy, vaginal ultrasound examination is generally chosen as soon as possible, and the results of blood HCG examination will be combined to help judge. In case of obvious pelvic effusion, vaginal posterior fornix puncture examination is usually chosen to see if there is pelvic blood accumulation, which helps to further determine whether there is ruptured ectopic pregnancy.

The condition of some patients with ectopic pregnancy is very serious and may progress rapidly. They may go into shock within a short period of time and endanger their lives. Therefore, they have symptoms such as a history of amenorrhea, abnormal vaginal bleeding or obvious abdominal pain.
