what are the other diagnosis for ectopic/ovarian pregnancy ?is it possible to have negative blood and urine test but have ectopic pregnancy?or anxiety

Question

Will a blood test say negative if you have an ectopic pregnancy?

Answer 1

Not pregnant: You cannot be pregnant if your blood pregnancy test is negative.

Answer 2

Yes: But very unlikely if blood test is negative we need to look for other diagnosis like cyst and possible anxiety.

Answer 3

Yes: Dyspareunia is a frequent symptom of ovarian cysts.

Answer 4

Yes: Cystic or enlarged ovaries can cause pain and painful sex.

Answer 5

Several: A type of back support called a pregnancy harness can help as you progress with the pregnancy and guided exercise as long as it is cleared by your ob/gyn. A tens unit can also be of benefit.

Answer 6

Can be: Always better to be safe than sorry, so get in with your obgyn and get checked. Vast likelihood is that you are fine. Good luck!

Answer 7

Yes: Dermoids do not prevent pregnancy but the diagnosis should be confirmed by sonogams. Unless they are very large they usually will not cause problems, but they can twist or rupture so removal might be advisable & can be done laparoscopically before pregnancy.

Answer 8

Abnormal ovarian cysts: A dermoid cyst has a very distinct pattern seen by ultrasound. It is very important to know how large this is and how long it's been in place. Also if it is causing pain. Sometimes dermoid can be confused with endometriomas. The cyst can also be another type of tumor which may need to be addressed surgically.

Answer 9

Sometimes: A ct scan will show the ovaries in the pelvis. Only significant and sometimes advanced changes of ovarian cancer such as excess fluid in the pelvis may be noticeable.

Answer 10

MAYBE: Although a contrast-enhanced ct--or, better still, a pelvic ultrasound--are preferred methods for visualizing the ovaries, a non-contact ct would likely show nonspecific irregularities of the ovaries. Bottom line: pelvic ultrasound is the best choice for visualizing ovaries.

Answer 11

Not usually: A much better test to detect ovarian cancer would be a transvaginal ultrasound.

Answer 12

Not necessarily...: Seeing ovarian cancer or not from ct without contrast is less desirable and accurate. But if an ovarian cancer is big and calcified, it can be easily suspected as how it may look. But, following the specific ct protocol for a specific suspected tumor so to have better visualization and diagnosis is highly recommended. Detail? Ask radiologist.
