Why There Is No Fetal Pole In 46 Days Gestation?

We did a Ultra scan for my wife yesterday, as her period got postponed to 46 days. Doctors confirmed the pregnancy. But the scan report reads Yolk sac seen, Foetal pole not visible, uterine myometrium is normal, ovaries are normal My wife has symptoms viz., tiredness, frequent urination. Is this a normal condition? Is there a problem if feotal pole is not visible in 46 days? Please guide

Hello dear,

I understand your concern.

Usually the fetal pole is visible around 6-8 weeks in transabdominal ultrasound.

The 46 days comes upto 6 weeks and 4 days .

As the yolk sac has appeared it's a good sign.

I suggest you to get the ultrasound done after a week or two.

Take prenatals and progesterone hormone supplements.

Avoid physical stress .

Take good rest.

Avoid stress.Relax.

In cases with delayed conception there might appear delayed appearance of yolk sac and fetal pole.

So relax and kindly get the ultrasound repeated.

Hope this helps.
Best regards....Dr.Srilatha
