Patient's question:
Doctor, I am pregnant for the first time and was over three months when I went to the hospital for a check-up. They found that there were fetal buds but no fetal heartbeat, suggesting that the embryo had stopped developing. I underwent medication-induced abortion. Both my husband and I have no medical history, and this recurrence is causing me great distress! I am also very confused now. What should I do?Doctor's answer:
There are many reasons that can lead to embryonic arrest of development. Generational inheritance, infection, autoimmune disorders, exposure to radioactive substances or toxic chemical agents, menstrual disorders, pathogenic microbial infections, blood type incompatibility, and repeated (D&C procedures) are all possible causes.If a woman experiences embryonic arrest of development, she should not rush to conceive again. It is recommended that both partners visit a regular hospital's department of pre-natal care for a thorough examination to determine the cause of this embryonic arrest. Patients should maintain a positive mindset, as this will enable timely and appropriate treatment. Additionally, they should pay close attention to their dietary care.
