I'm feeling something moving around in my stomach for the past two months. I got my periods, but the sensation is still there. Could this be an ectopic pregnancy?

stomach can be unsettling. Given your symptoms and regular periods, an ectopic pregnancy is unlikely. However, it's essential to consult a doctor to rule out any potential issues.
Possible Causes
- Gas and bloating: Trapped gas, constipation, or food intolerance can cause discomfort and movement sensations.
- Gastrointestinal issues: Conditions like irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), or gastroparesis can cause stomach discomfort.
- Hormonal changes: Fluctuations in estrogen and progesterone levels during your menstrual cycle can cause stomach discomfort.
- Other medical conditions: Certain conditions, such as gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), stomach ulcers, or pancreatic disorders, can cause similar symptoms.
Next Steps
- Consult your gynecologist or primary care physician: Discuss your symptoms and medical history to determine the best course of action.
- Get a physical examination: A thorough examination can help identify potential causes.
- Diagnostic tests: Your doctor may recommend tests, such as:
- Ultrasound
- Endoscopy
- Blood tests
- Stool tests

I'm feeling a bit worried because my wife's been advised to get an HSG X-ray test. Is this something that's complicated? I'm also concerned about whether it might affect her chances of getting pregnant in the future. Could it possibly cause any infections or have side effects?
HSG (Hysterosalpingography) is a common radiology procedure used to evaluate the shape of the uterine cavity and the patency of the fallopian tubes. It involves injecting a contrast dye into the uterus and fallopian tubes while taking X-ray images. The procedure itself is generally safe and well-tolerated, with minimal complexities. It is not known to have a negative impact on future pregnancies. However, like any medical procedure, there are risks of infection or side effects, such as pelvic discomfort, cramping, or a slight risk of allergic reaction to the contrast dye used. These risks are usually minimal and the benefits of the test often outweigh the potential risks. It is important to follow any pre-test instructions provided by the healthcare provider and to inform the medical team of any allergies or medical conditions before undergoing the HSG test.
