Content: An indistinct yolk seen.
Average gestational age: 05 weeks 03 days +/- 1 week
Internal Os: Closed
Impression: A single intra-uterine gestational sac corresponding to 5 weeks 3 days +/1 1 week

Detailed Answer:
Hi
I read your query and I understand your concerns.
The injection your doctor prescribed for you is an hCG injection which rescues corpus luteum and supports pregnancy.
It is safe and can be taken. Doctor has prescribed this probably keeping in mind that previously you had aborted.
Let me know if you have any more questions

As per the doctor, the average gestational age (which is 05 weeks 3 days +/- 1 week shown in USG report) and BETA-HCG count(4100) is low considering the LMP(15-Mar-2014). But we had first physical relationship after LMP on 21-22nd Mar. So considering the date of last physical relationship and both of the above data, is there any problem seen?
Brief Answer:
No
Detailed Answer:
Hi
Considering the date of intercourse the dates on ultrasound dont match and beta hCG is low.
But the pregnancy could have occurred in physical contact after 25 th march. That is why the above findings dont match.
In another way if baby has stopped growing the low values can be explained. Therefore doctor has given medicines to help baby grow if there is problem.
Let me know if you have any more questions.
