How do you know you are pregnant if your tubes are tied?

Often, the first warning signs of an ectopic pregnancy are light vaginal bleeding and pelvic pain. If blood leaks from the fallopian tube, you may feel shoulder pain or an urge to have a bowel movement. Your specific symptoms depend on where the blood collects and which nerves are irritated.

Can an ectopic pregnancy be detected by a pregnancy test?

A urine pregnancy test—including a home pregnancy test—can accurately diagnose a pregnancy but cannot detect whether it is an ectopic pregnancy. If a urine pregnancy test confirms pregnancy and an ectopic pregnancy is suspected, further blood testing or ultrasound is needed to diagnose an ectopic pregnancy.

How long can an ectopic pregnancy go unnoticed?

If it’s not diagnosed in time, generally between 6 and 16 weeks, the fallopian tube will rupture.
