A member asked:
Is it true that if your pregnant in your tube or having ectopic it won't show up on a home urine pregnancy test? should i just go to the doctor?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not true: An ectopic will still show a positive home preg test. If you have risk factors (prior ectopic, tubal surgery, pelvic surgery, infections, endometriosis or anything that scars tubes) you should see your doc asap with a positive test. If your test is negative but you still have symptoms of pregnancy & one-sided pain with spotting; see your doc asap. Good luck & take care.
