What does it mean if the gestational sac keeps growing?

For pregnant women, they must follow the doctor's instructions, have regular physical examinations, and understand the health of the baby in the belly. The most important thing is to check the condition of the gestational sac. Generally speaking, the gestational sac will continue to grow. What does it mean if the gestational sac continues to grow? Some women may not have much knowledge in this area, so let’s analyze this issue carefully so that pregnant mothers can understand it clearly and don’t have to worry about the baby’s health.

Will the gestational sac grow after the fetus stops growing?

The cessation of gestational sac development refers to the death of the embryo during development. The fertilized egg no longer grows and develops in the early stages of development due to various reasons. This is called fetal arrest. If the embryo stops developing, all the pregnancy reactions of the baby's mother will gradually disappear, and the gestational sac carrying the baby will also stop developing and no longer grow.

The examination after fetal growth retardation is mainly to check whether the mother has organic or pathological diseases. If pathological reasons are ruled out for fetal growth retardation, then the main reason is that the mother's physical condition is not suitable for conception, and more attention should be paid to nutritional supplements and physical adjustments.

If the symptoms of fetal growth retardation are detected at the first opportunity and the fetus can still be preserved, folic acid tablets can be taken. Continue to monitor blood HCG, which should normally double every day; try to get more rest, and be alert for abdominal pain and vaginal bleeding. If vaginal bleeding occurs, give progesterone injection.

After implementing the above-mentioned examinations and treatments, you can do prenatal screening after 56 days, such as Down syndrome screening, antiphospholipid antibody, antisperm antibody testing, B-ultrasound examination, and measurement of fetal nuchal skin thickness. With timely detection and early treatment, you can have your own baby.

What is a gestational sac

In fact, women need to pay more attention to their physical health when they are in the initial stage of pregnancy. Because the gestational sac is not very stable at this time, if you are not careful, it may lead to miscarriage. Therefore, I hope everyone can pay more attention to their physical health during the pregnancy.

The gestational sac is the primitive placental tissue, a small embryo wrapped by the amniotic membrane and vascular network. The gestational sac is the initial form of pregnancy. At that time, the fetus has not yet formed, and the fetal heartbeat is already there when the embryonic bud appears.

The gestational sac is also a product of ectopic pregnancy. The fertilized egg fails to enter the uterus at 7 days due to certain factors such as inflammation and adhesion. Ectopic pregnancy usually causes heavy bleeding, and generally the fetus cannot survive.

The mother of the little baby was experiencing an intrauterine pregnancy, but due to poor development of the uterus, the gestational sac broke through the weak top of the uterus and entered the abdominal cavity. The villi around the gestational sac sought nutrients everywhere in the abdominal cavity and then supplied them to the fetus through the placenta. Usually, such fetuses will die within two months because they have no protection from the uterine environment, live in an extremely harsh environment, and have poor nutrition.
