Patient's question:
I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? How many weeks of pregnancy is it when the fetal heartbeat is clearer?Doctor's answer:
The fetal heartbeat is the heartbeat of the fetus. Generally, the fetal heartbeat can be heard in the abdomen using a regular stethoscope between 17 and 20 weeks.The fetal heartbeat ranges from 120 to 160 beats per minute, sometimes even faster, and is not very regular. By the end of pregnancy, it becomes more regular. Sometimes there may be brief pauses or the rate may reach 180 beats per minute, which is a normal phenomenon. However, if this occurs frequently or for a long period, it is necessary to seek medical attention promptly.
