Hi, Welcome to HCM, I am Dr. Das
First of all, you go for beta hcg level in your blood, which will show whether you are pregnant or not. if the level is low which show you are not pregnant, then it will be confirmed that there will be no chance of tubal pregnancy. But if the level is high then go for USG of whole abdomen which will confirm whether there is tubal pregnancy or not.
So, this is the workup youneed.
