Findings
Ruptured or Unruptured
amenorrhea, bleeding, abdominal pain

+BhCG, U/s shows nothing in uterus when BhCG above discriminatory zone >1500
Ectopic Pregnancy

Management
UNRUPTURED
<5,000 BhCG (Early)= Methotrexate

>5,000 BhCG (Late)= Surgical

RUPTURED! = Surgical
Ectopic Pregnancy

Follow up
1. Rho Gam if pt -
2. Serial BhCG titers especially if methotrexate given
