Patient's question:
I am 72 days pregnant. Recently, I went to the hospital for a thorough examination. The doctor confirmed that the fetus has stopped growing and developing. I don't know if this condition will affect the fetus's growth and development. What kind of help is needed: What tests should be done for embryonic arrest?Doctor's answer:
If it is carefully checked that the fetus has stopped growing and developing, it may be that the embryo has already died. The diagnosis of fetal demise requires undergoing a D&C procedure. There are multiple different causes for fetal demise, such as negative, low progesterone, or conditions like spleen deficiency and kidney deficiency in traditional Chinese medicine. It is necessary to conduct a thorough examination and diagnosis, followed by treatment. It is also possible to combine traditional Chinese medicine treatments, such as taking Chinese herbal medicine, drinking more water, and maintaining a positive mood. Wishing you a speedy recovery!
