Patient's question:
My last menstrual period was on August 21st. On October 4th, I had an ultrasound, and the results showed a gestational sac measuring 2.21.80.8 cm inside the uterus. The report did not indicate a fetal heartbeat or fetal movement. Is that normal?Doctor's answer:
According to the description, generally speaking, it is possible to see the gestational sac growing and developing around 40 days of pregnancy, and it is possible to see the fetal pole growing and developing and the fetal heartbeat around 50 days of pregnancy. Based on your last menstrual period, it should be around 43 days pregnant. The growth and development of the gestational sac is normal. Wait for one week and then go to the hospital for a follow-up ultrasound examination, and you will be able to see the fetal pole growing and developing and the fetal heartbeat.
