"I thought it was just a bad period," recalls 28-year-old Mercy (not her real name).
"The cramps were unbearable, and I was bleeding, but I brushed it off, thinking it would pass. Then one morning, a sharp wave of pain hit me out of nowhere. I couldn't stand-my entire abdomen was in agony. The next thing I knew, I was in the hospital, with my partner telling me I had collapsed on the floor, unable to move."
Mercy had no idea what was happening. It wasn't until doctors ran tests that she learned she had an ectopic pregnancy-a condition she had never heard of before.
