A member asked:

My sister 35 years is pregnant it's her 6th week after the period the gyneco couldn't find a heart beat and he asked to see her in 4 days is that bad?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

See details: The fetal heartbeat can be heard as early as the 5th week on ultrasound but week 6 is the most common time. Not every fetal heartbeat is detectable at 6 weeks. At this point there is not a need to worry.
