Only the gestational sac without germs may be due to insufficient days of pregnancy, embryonic arrest, etc. The latter is a pathological phenomenon that requires timely medical treatment.
Insufficient days of pregnancy: Generally, the pregnancy sac can be detected by pelvic ultrasound at about 5 weeks of menopause, and the embryo buds start to develop at about 6 weeks of menopause.
Therefore, if the pregnancy sac is detected for the first time but there is no germ, we should first consider that the pregnancy is not enough days old, and the germ may not be fully developed, we can be patient and observe for a week and then recheck the pelvic ultrasound, and if there is a germ, we can continue the pregnancy, and at the same time, do a good job in preserving the fetus.
2. Embryonic arrest: If the gestational sac has been detected for 2 weeks or more pelvic ultrasound still did not find the embryonic buds, we should consider embryonic arrest. If the pregnant woman usually menstruation is normal, according to its menstrual history to recalculate the time of pregnancy, from the last menstruation about 60 days, if there is still no embryonic buds can be identified as embryonic sterilizations. At this point, it is important to follow the doctor’s instructions and take measures as soon as possible to minimize the adverse effects.
There may be several reasons why there is only a gestational sac but no embryo. If this phenomenon persists, it is advisable to consult a doctor as soon as possible for standardized treatment in order to reduce its adverse effects.
