What should I do if the ultrasound shows a gestational sac with a yolk sac but no embryo?

Patient's question:

A transvaginal ultrasound shows an existing gestational sac with a yolk sac, but no embryonic bud is visible. No fetal heartbeat is detected. The diagnosis is confirmed as intrauterine pregnancy. However, the progesterone level is low. The doctor prescribed dydrogesterone tablets and folic acid tablets. I am unsure whether I can save the baby.

Doctor's answer:

According to your description, the progesterone level is still continuing to rise. I don't know how much the blood HCG is. It is recommended to do a blood HCG test to see how high the value is. MRI, if the growth and development are normal, it is not a problem, generally not a big issue. Focus on digesting progesterone, and eat more foods rich in natural progesterone in your daily diet, such as beans, strawberries, kiwis, hawthorns, and so on. The above advice is for the question "How to deal with a gestational sac seen on transvaginal ultrasound with a yolk sac but no embryo," and I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
