WELCOME
DONT BE NERVOUS...
IN MANY CASES IT HAPPENS THAT SOME STRUCTURE CANT BE VISULISED...IN SUCH CASE REPEAT SONOGRAPHY AFTER 15-20 DAYS WILL SHOW NORMAL REPORT.
YA THERE COULD BE A POSSIBILTY OF CONGENITAL ANOMALY ALSO...WE SHOULD ALSO KEEP THIS IN MIND...
REPEAT USG AFTER 15 DAYS....SO IF ANY MAJOR ANOMALY FOUND WE CAN TAKE DECISION OF CONTINUATION OF PREGNANCY BEFORE 20 WEEKS...
THANKS
