Patient's question:
I got married last year. Recently, I've been experiencing lower abdominal pain, especially during my period. I'm very worried about it affecting fertility, and I'm also extremely sensitive to cold and coldness. What are the reasons for a fetus stopping growth two months into pregnancy?Doctor's answer:
Hello, generally a gestational sac can be seen around week 6, and a fetal pole can be observed between weeks 6-7. By week 8, a fetal heartbeat can be clearly detected. The current situation may be due to the possibility of fetal demise. It is recommended to follow up in one week. If no fetal pole is still visible, fetal demise should be considered, and a D&C procedure may be necessary.Generally speaking, women who have had an abortion show no outward signs. In other words, we cannot determine from the outside whether someone has a history of abortion. Vaginal relaxation and slightly darker labia may occur, but these are not specific indicators and do not signify anything significant.
