Patient's question:
My wife is 7 weeks pregnant. Recently, when she went to the bathroom, there were some red discharges on her underwear, which could be washed off. When she went to the hospital for a check-up, they took an ultrasound image. The doctor reviewed the image and said it looked like around 40 days of pregnancy, but the fetal teeth and heartbeat were not visible. The doctor recommended taking medication to support the pregnancy and suggested a follow-up check-up in 10 days.I would like to ask if taking more images will affect the embryo's development?
If she takes medication to support the pregnancy and the embryo does not develop well, will there still be bleeding?
When can the development of the embryo be determined? Will another image be needed for confirmation?
First follow-up question: When can the development of the embryo be confirmed to be healthy?
Doctor's answer:
The situation you mentioned does not affect pregnancy. After pregnancy, you should pay attention to rest, maintain a balanced diet, and avoid sexual activity during the first three months and the last three months of pregnancy. In the middle and late stages of pregnancy, pay attention to supplementing calcium and iron. Prevent infections and various viral infections, do not take medicine randomly, do not come into contact with radiation and radioactive substances. Regular prenatal examinations are required.
