Possible blighted ovum or miscarriage? which is worse to go through?

Dr. Nikolaos Zacharias answered

Specializes in Maternal-Fetal Medicine

Clinically the same.: These two diagnoses refer to sonographic features of the abnormal first trimester pregnancy. From a clinical/patient perspective these two diagnoses are indistinguishable and managed the same way (d&c, Misoprostol or expectant management).
