Ectopic pregnancy: "Ectopic" means outside of normal location, and depending on where the pregnancy occurs can be life threatening, so treatment is almost always indicated. The symptoms are prolonged bleeding and cramping in one side of the lower abdomen. Consult a healthcare provider for correct diagnosis and treatment, Do not delay.
