An ectopic pregnancy may seem like a normal pregnancy at first. You'll have a positive pregnancy test. Early signs and symptoms may be the same as those of any pregnancy a missed period, breast tenderness, nausea and fatigue.
But an ectopic pregnancy can't continue as normal. The first warning signs of an ectopic pregnancy often include :
- Light vaginal bleeding
- Lower abdominal pain
- Cramping on one side of the pelvis
If the fallopian tube ruptures, symptoms may include:
- Sharp, stabbing pain in the pelvis, abdomen or even the shoulder and neck
- Dizziness
- Lightheadedness
If you experience any signs or symptoms of ectopic pregnancy, seek emergency care.
