As the pregnancy test is positive, it definitely proves that she is pregnant. Your doctor might have done internal examination to find out the size of uterus, sometimes due to varied reasons it could be difficult to find out the exact size of uterus, during these circumstances it is better to do a scan (ultrasound) pelvis to know the exact location of pregnancy and to know the exact gestational age. It is very very important to localize the pregnancy, because rarely the pregnancy could be in ectopic location (Pregnancy location other than uterus).
Depending on the scan findings treatment can be planned.
Please ask if you have more questions. If you are satisfied, please make sure that your ACCEPT my answer so that I receive credit. Good luck!!
