It's consider normal a gestational sac of 5.5mm at 5 weeks + 1day with yolk sac and incipient embryonic pole?

Yes: I think you are asking if it is normal at 5 weeks to only see a yolk sac located in the gestational sac. If so then yes that is what is expected. A fetal pole can be seen after the 6th week.
Created for people with ongoing healthcare needs but benefits everyone.
