Hello.
I have read your query. An early ultrasound in which there is normal gestational sac shape and size and yolk sac must be followed up for cardiac activity.
Usually cardiac activity is seen by 6 weeks on a TVS.
Also in some patients with irregular periods, there can be a few differences from normal reference values.
In such cases a followup scan is done in a weeks time for the same.
Do not worry.
All the best.
