I am 29 and I am pregnant after treatment. I had my last period on 11.03.10 & my egg got ruptured on 27.03.10. After 6 weeks I went for scanning & my doctor said that the fetus is very small (3.2) and without any heartbeat. They asked me to come for rescan after 10 days. Pls reply me Is this is normal and I ll get possitive result during my next scan. Pls help. Thankyou.
Hallow Dear, It is indeed a sad incidence. Your scan report suggests that the baby inside your uterus is non-viable for some time. When such baby does not get expelled out naturally, we call it as missed abortion. Your doctor wants to confirm this diagnosis by a repeat scan after few days. If missed abortion, please do not delay the termination of pregnancy; otherwise there is risk of complications like heavy threatening bleeding due to clotting defects (DIC), infection, kidney failure, etc. Get the pregnancy terminated ASAP if the diagnosis of non-viable baby is confirmed. Before undergoing termination of pregnancy, you might have to undergo following investigations on blood to rule out possibility of DIC:1. Bleeding time & Clotting time2. Platelet count3. Prothrombin time4. Fibrinogen Degradation Products do not want to dishearten you, however, the possibility of Missed abortion seems to be very high.
