How can a miscarriage occur if the gestational sac does not implant?

Patient's question:

I finally got pregnant, but after a thorough examination at the hospital, they found that the gestational sac had not implanted. How can I have a miscarriage if the gestational sac has not implanted?

Doctor's answer:

If it has already been confirmed that the gestational sac has not implanted, then it is a biochemical pregnancy. A biochemical pregnancy refers to the failure of the fertilized egg to implant. Biochemical pregnancy can naturally lead to a miscarriage, and since the pregnancy duration is very short, there is no need for a D&C. Once vaginal bleeding reappears, it is equivalent to having a menstrual period. However, it is essential to rest and avoid getting cold. Regulate your physical and mental health, maintain personal hygiene, and avoid bacterial invasion due to a weakened immune system.
