01 / UNDERSTANDING YOUR SCAN

Where is the pregnancy?
A careful look.

An ectopic pregnancy grows outside the womb, most often in a fallopian tube. An early scan checks the womb, tubes and ovaries to see where the pregnancy is.

01

Pregnancy location

Look for a pregnancy sac inside the womb.

02

Tubes & ovaries

Check the area around the tubes and ovaries for signs of an ectopic pregnancy.

03

Heartbeat

Look for a heartbeat when the pregnancy is far enough along.

04

Free fluid

Check for fluid in the pelvis that may need urgent attention.

Very early scans can be inconclusive. Before about 6 weeks the pregnancy may be too small to see. If so, we will explain the next steps, which may include a blood test or a repeat scan.

IN DETAIL

Ectopic Pregnancy Scan

An ectopic pregnancy occurs when a fertilized egg implants outside the uterus, typically in the fallopian tubes. This can be a life-threatening condition if not diagnosed early. At our clinic, we provide comprehensive Ectopic Pregnancy Scans to ensure early detection and effective management.

Why Choose an Ectopic Pregnancy Scan?

Early diagnosis of ectopic pregnancy is crucial to prevent complications such as internal bleeding or damage to the reproductive organs. Our advanced ultrasound technology enables us to:

  • Detect pregnancies that are not located in the uterus.
  • Identify potential risks early on.
  • Provide prompt medical guidance for the best course of action.
Who Needs an Ectopic Pregnancy Scan?

An ectopic pregnancy scan is recommended if you experience symptoms such as:

  • Sharp pelvic or abdominal pain
  • Vaginal bleeding or spotting
  • Dizziness or fainting
  • Shoulder pain, which may indicate internal bleeding

If you have a history of ectopic pregnancies, pelvic infections, or fertility treatments, we strongly advise getting an early pregnancy scan to rule out any issues.

What to Expect During the Scan

Our highly trained sonographers perform a transvaginal ultrasound scan to get the clearest images of the reproductive organs. This scan is safe and painless, typically taking around 15-30 minutes.

Early detection can save lives. If you’re experiencing symptoms or have risk factors for ectopic pregnancy, don’t wait. Book your ectopic pregnancy scan today to ensure your health and safety.

Our team is here to support you every step of the way, offering personalized care in a comfortable and caring environment.

Does this replace my NHS scans?

No. A private scan is extra reassurance, not a replacement. Keep all your NHS antenatal appointments and scans, and share our report with your midwife.

Who should have this scan?

Anyone with a previous ectopic pregnancy, tubal surgery, an IVF pregnancy, or mild one-sided pain or spotting who wants an early check.

Will it hurt?

No. An internal scan may feel a little uncomfortable but should not be painful. You can ask to stop at any time.

What if the pain is severe?

Severe or one-sided tummy pain, shoulder-tip pain, heavy bleeding, dizziness or fainting can be a medical emergency. Call 999 or go to A&E — do not wait for a private scan.

BEFORE YOU ARRIVE

Preparation, made clear.

  • Come with a comfortably full bladder — drink about 500 ml of still water an hour before.
  • Be ready for an internal scan — a transvaginal scan often gives the clearest view early on. It is only done with your consent, and a chaperone is available.
  • Take your usual medication unless your doctor has told you otherwise.
  • Bring any previous scans, reports or doctor’s letters so the sonographer can compare and focus on what matters.

Booking this alongside another scan? Each scan keeps its own preparation. If anything is unclear, call us on 020 3318 1373 before your visit.

If you feel unwell, seek medical advice. This page is general information, not a diagnosis. For urgent concerns, contact your GP or NHS 111; in an emergency call 999.

FAQs
What are the typical symptoms of ectopic pregnancy?

Symptoms often include pelvic pain, vaginal bleeding, shoulder pain (resulting from irritation of the diaphragm due to blood from a ruptured tube), and signs of early pregnancy such as a missed period and a positive pregnancy test. Severe abdominal pain and dizziness may indicate a ruptured ectopic pregnancy, necessitating urgent medical attention.

Does experiencing an ectopic pregnancy impact future pregnancies?

The impact on future pregnancies can vary. While some women may conceive and have successful pregnancies after an ectopic pregnancy, others may encounter challenges, particularly if there has been damage to the fallopian tubes. Seeking medical guidance is essential for those planning future pregnancies.
