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. Please ask, will you see a gestational sac 20 days after implantation?Doctor's answer:
In this case, it is not possible to immediately see the gestational sac. There is usually a process involved in the formation of the gestational sac, which typically takes about 2 weeks after the menstrual period. It is generally around 45 days when an ultrasound can confirm whether pregnancy has occurred. The placenta is located at the fundus and is not a case of placenta previa. Placenta previa is classified as marginal, central, or low-lying placenta. A low-lying placenta is when the lower edge of the placenta is less than 4 cm away from the internal cervical os. It is likely that the doctor made a typo when stating that the placenta is located on the anterior wall, posterior wall, or fundus. Do not worry for now, as placenta previa is often associated with bleeding symptoms. It is recommended to have a follow-up ultrasound in 2 weeks to reassess the position of the placenta.
