Patient's question:
Two weeks ago, the gestational sac was measured at 0.5 x 0.3. Today, the check showed 1.9 x 0.9, with ultrasound confirming the presence of a yolk sac but no fetal pole or heartbeat. Is this normal?Doctor's answer:
Hello, if the pregnancy is normal, a fetal heartbeat can be clearly detected through ultrasound at eight weeks of pregnancy. Based on the current test results, there is a high possibility of embryonic arrest of development. You can check your blood HCG and progesterone levels for reference. If the test values are very low, you may consider surgical termination of pregnancy. There is no need to continue the pregnancy.
