What are the functions of B-ultrasound during pregnancy

Women will inevitably have to have many ultrasound examinations during the entire pregnancy process. For example, in the early stages of pregnancy, in order to determine whether you are pregnant, whether it is an ectopic pregnancy, or whether there are any abnormalities in the pregnancy, you need to insist on doing B-ultrasound. In the second trimester of pregnancy, an ultrasound examination is also required to determine whether there are any fetal malformations and the development of the fetus. Here are some benefits of doing an ultrasound examination after pregnancy.

We all know that we need to do B-ultrasound examinations on schedule during pregnancy. There are many benefits to doing B-ultrasound examinations during pregnancy. The main purpose is to check the growth and development of the fetus and to see if there are any abnormal phenomena in the fetus. B-ultrasound examination during pregnancy can clearly show whether the fetus's limbs are healthy, thus reducing the birth rate of deformed and defective babies.

If you do an ultrasound examination when you are more than one month pregnant, you can see that the diameter of the gestational sac has grown to about 2 cm. When you are ten weeks pregnant, the diameter of the gestational sac is about 5 cm, which is normal at this time. The location of the gestational sac at the bottom, front wall, back wall, upper part, or middle part of the uterus is normal. It is also very normal if you can clearly see that the gestational sac is round or oval. If the gestational sac is not seen or the fetus is not inside the gestational sac at 6 weeks of pregnancy, it is abnormal.

During pregnancy, if the fetal sac is found to be irregular and blurred and located in the lower part of the uterus during B-ultrasound examination, and the pregnant woman also has symptoms such as abdominal pain and vaginal bleeding, these conditions indicate that miscarriage may occur. If the outline of the fetal head is complete, the midline of the brain has not moved, and there is no hydrocephalus, it means that the fetus is relatively normal.

It should be noted here that after pregnancy, the B-ultrasound examination is not enough to be done once in the early stages of pregnancy. If women insist on doing B-ultrasound in the second half of pregnancy, they can not only observe the specific development of the fetus, but also determine the expected date of delivery based on the results of the examination, so as to make adequate preparations for future delivery. Therefore, all these early, middle and late stage B-ultrasound examinations should be done actively.
