16 weeks placental lower margin intrauterine orifice 17mm is normal?

Patient's question:

I am very scared when this happens. I often experience lower abdominal pain and don't know how to solve it, so I came here for consultation. Please ask, is it normal for the lower margin of the placenta at 16 weeks to be 17mm at the internal os?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, you need to regularly go to the hospital for follow-up checks, increase nutritional supplements, and take vitamins and trace elements. Maintain a good mood and get adequate rest. It is due to a low-lying placenta, so pay attention to rest and avoid harmful stimuli.
Recommendation: It is recommended that you continue to monitor for a few more days, and then you can have an ultrasound, check HCG and progesterone at the hospital after a one-week delay in your period. This will help confirm the situation.
