Hello dear, I understand your concern. Iam very sorry for your condition. In my opinion the presence of empty gestational sac without yolk sac, fetal pole and cardiac activity might need to be evaluated to rule out any blighted ovum. Usually fetal pole and yolk sac are visible in abdominal ultrasound by 7 weeks. Anyways repetition of ultrasound after a week and serum B Chat Doctor will help in diagnosis. Take progesterone and folic acid supplements. Nothing to worry. Have hope and avoid stress. Best regards... Chat Doctor.
