Patient's question:
Doctor, during my 4D ultrasound on September 18, the placenta was only Grade 0. Today, I had an ultrasound at the health center, and the placenta is now Grade 2. Is that bad? Also, compared to the last ultrasound, the placenta is smaller by several days today. What could be the reason? The second ultrasound is from today.Doctor's answer:
First of all, your ultrasound is a bit smaller than before. This is also a situation that can occur in clinical diagnosis, but it generally would never be lower than ten days because after the fourth or fifth month, the growth and development of the child can vary, with some growing a bit faster and others possibly growing a bit slower. A placenta grade 0 is the best, but you mentioned it has now become grade 2, which might also be related to the instrument. The patient can take many oral medications and coordinate with a variety of vitamins, while also paying attention to their diet, eating light, thin, and soft foods. We hope that the patient undergoing 4D ultrasound can recover as soon as possible! Thank you!
