Answered by Master, Doctor Nguyen Van Thanh - Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Vinmec Ha Long International General Hospital.
Hello,
With the question “5 weeks pregnant, no embryo and fetal heart, is it okay? ", the doctor would like to answer as follows:
On normal abdominal ultrasound, it is not until 6-7 weeks of pregnancy that the fetal heart activity can be observed. Your pregnancy is 5 weeks without embryo and fetal heart should go back to ultrasound after 1-2 weeks, in case of necessity, you can do a beta-hCG test to assess the development of the fetus.
To have a healthy pregnancy you should choose a healthy, nutritious diet. You need to supplement the necessary micronutrients such as iron, folic acid, calcium, ... and have regular pregnancy management check-ups.
If you still have questions about 5 weeks pregnant without embryo and fetal heart, you can go to a hospital of Vinmec Health System for further examination and advice. Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. Wishing you lots of health.
