Patient's question:
I got married to my wife late because I was always busy with my career. We finally got married last year, and after the wedding, we wanted to have a child as soon as possible. Now, my wife is four months pregnant. Yesterday, the hospital conducted a thorough examination and said that the embryo had stopped developing. I'm in great pain. What could have caused the embryo to stop developing?Doctor's answer:
If you are pregnant during the 6-7 week period and undergo a detailed ultrasound examination without detecting a fetal heartbeat, it is considered possible that the pregnancy has stopped developing. The reasons for this outcome are relatively complex. Currently, it is necessary to undergo a miscarriage. During the miscarriage process, a biopsy of the gestational sac and fetal membrane can be performed. Subsequently, it may be considered to implement genetic testing, chromosomal testing, and antibody testing in women to identify the cause. Try to conceive again after one year.
