Dear Doctor,
Re: Cathy Jones DOB 1.12.83

          Thank you for seeing this 25 year old woman who I suspect has an ectopic pregnancy.

This is her first pregnancy. She presented to the surgery yesterday evening with vague lower abdominal pain. She started the progesterone-only pill for contraception two months ago, when she started a new relationship, and has had some irregular bleeding since then. Therefore she is unsure of her exact last menstrual period. Yesterday, she was mildly tender only and her observations were normal.

However, on review this morning her pain had worsened overnight, she is very tender in the right iliac fossa, with rebound and guarding, and on vaginal examination there is cervical excitation, and marked tenderness in the right fornix. Her pregnancy test is positive.

I am concerned that she may have an ectopic pregnancy, and would appreciate your urgent assessment.
Please keep me informed of the outcome.

Yours sincerely,


Dr Sally Brown (GP)
