A member asked:

What does a "subacutely hemorrhagic crenelated follicle" measuring @ 1.6cm mean? this is from a ultrasound 11days ago & yesterday i found out i was 3wks pregnant. should i be worried about ectopic pregnancy. i have had moderate backpain for 3wks?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

More likely: the timing fits with an ovulatory cyst, ectopics usually become symptomatic around 4 weeks post conception. IF pain continues or worsens see your doctor, or urgent care/ER. The ovarian cyst is supportative for the pregnancy, providing progesterone, until around 8 - 10 weeks along when the placenta takes over the hormone support.
