Q. I had sex 2 days ago and was just wondering what the signs of an ectopic pregnancy are? The reason for this question is because I took Plan B and when researching the side effects, it listed what to do in case of an ectopic pregnancy.
A.
Can you have an ectopic pregnancy if you've already had a normal ultrasound?
Q. I'm 6 weeks pregnant and had an ultrasound that confirmed a uterine pregnancy. I keep noticing signs of an ectopic pregnancy but am not sure if they are relevant. When I found out I did not have morning sickness now all the sudden I get nauseas more, and ive been having mild cramps since I found out, and just got shoulder pain but it could be from sleeping or work.
A. Nope you're safe. Try to relax, 6 weeks is a common time to be experiencing a lot more symptoms, and some of them can be weird. Mild cramping, random aches and pains, nausea, constipation or diarrhea, trouble sleeping. All those things are normal and happen to a lot of us. Don't worry too much unless you are having unbearable pain. Congrats on your pregnancy and try to get some rest, your body needs it. :)

Q. I have an IUD in and lately I have been having spotting in between my periods and for the past couple days I have been having a sharp stabbing pain on my left lower abdomen that comes and goes. Does this sound like an ectopic pregnancy or am I over reacting?
I didnt have it put in recently. I had it put in over a year and a half ago.

A. Though you would not think so with you having the IUD But It could be possible,especially regarding the pain in your lower left abdomen..this could be an ectopic pregnancy in your left fallopian tube.
Sometimes,depending on how far the pregnancy is developed,the actual embryo can come away with a bleed naturally and this is far more common occurrence than we think.
Sometimes however they can require surgical removal,often in emergency,as if left an ectopic pregnancy can have quite serious consequences.
Mother nature plays many tricks on us and the trouble is that many symptoms associated with pregnancies ectopic or otherwise,can also be easily compaired to the symptoms of your periods so can easily be confusing..So while I wouldn't worry too much,see if these pains pass over the next few days but if they worsen at all then seek medical help as soon you can.
Hope you feel better real soon,Good Luck! xxx

Q. What are signs and symptoms of an ectopic pregnancy?
Also I heard if you've had chlamydia it increases the risk. I was raped almost two years ago and contracted chlamydia and was treated and cured completely. Could it still increase the chance even though I don't have it anymore?

A. � Abdominal or pelvic pain or tenderness. It can be sudden, persistent, and severe but may also be mild and intermittent early on. You may feel it only on one side, but the pain can be anywhere in your abdomen or pelvis and is sometimes accompanied by nausea and vomiting.
� Vaginal spotting or bleeding. If you're not sure you're pregnant yet, you may think you're getting a light period at first. The blood may look red or brown like the color of dried blood, and may be continuous or intermittent, heavy or light.
� Pain that gets worse when you're active or while moving your bowels or coughing.
� Shoulder pain. Cramping and bleeding can mean many things, but pain in your shoulder, particularly when you lie down, is a red flag for a ruptured ectopic pregnancy and it's critical to get medical attention immediately. The cause of the pain is internal bleeding, which irritates nerves that go to your shoulder area.
