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?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
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

View allI'm a bit worried because I got my last period on July 23rd, but I still haven't gotten it again. I took a urine test, but it came back negative. I've started taking Cyclenorm E and P, 6 tablets per day for the past 2 days. How long does it usually take for periods to start after this?
your period may occur within 3-7 days. This can vary depending on your individual response to the medication. However, if your periods do not start within this time frame or if you experience any side effects, it is important to consult with your doctor.
