Brief Answer:
See your OBGYN
Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.
This is no good news but appears the pregnancy would not be able to carry on.
These findings suggest that you have a missed abortion. Missed abortion is when the fetus stops growing but remains in the uterus. There is no point in keeping it any longer as it cannot grow anymore and would rather stay back to cause complications to the mother.
I understand how disturbing this is. I know every pregnant woman who wants to keep her pregnancy would feel devastated about this. However, there is hope because many women still go on and become pregnant shortly after unfortunate situations like these. Ii believe you would be able as well.
I will suggest you follow up with your OBGYN. If you need some social and psychological support to go through this, ask your doctors about available options for persons going through this in the area. Then plan and get the products evacuated through the D/C when ready.
I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thank you so much for using our services an do feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
