The development of the embryo, 30-40 days forms the gestational sac, 40-50 days forms the embryo, 50-60 days forms the fetal heart. Empty gestational sac phenomenon is possible, and it is also considered as embryonic arrest. There are many causes of embryonic arrest, including immunological factors, genetic factors, infectious factors, endocrine factors, anatomical factors, etc. In general, if embryonic arrest occurs during the first pregnancy and the cause cannot be identified, it is not advisable to get pregnant blindly in the future.
