Hopefully not!: An ectopic pregnancy is suspected in the following setting: 1. A patient is pregnant 2. Hcg levels are rising abnormally 3. Pain is present on one side of the other 4. There is findings on ultrasound of a mass or cystic area near one of the ovaries pain at the site of a prior c-section incision is not the typical site of pain related to an ectopic. If it is suspected, then the call your ob!
