Patient's question:
I am very scared when this happens. I often have lower abdominal pain and don't know how to solve it, so I came here to consult. Could you please tell me how big a gestational sac can grow in one week?Doctor's answer:
Hello, under normal circumstances, at 5 weeks of pregnancy, the gestational sac is about 1.2 cm; at 6 weeks, it's about 2.0 cm; at 7 weeks, it's about 2.7 cm; and at 8 weeks, it's about 3.5 cm. This suggests that the gestational sac should grow about 1 mm per day, or 7 mm per week. You need to go to the hospital for hormone 6-item and ultrasound tests. Medications such as intramuscular injection or oral progesterone may be required. Rest in bed during the day, and avoid strenuous exercise. Avoid spicy, alcoholic, and other stimulating foods.
