A member asked:
Does a teardrop shaped gestational sac at 6weeks of pregnancy suggest something bad? a yolk sac and a heartbeat could be seen. thank you!
A doctor has provided 1 answer
None at all: No, at 6 weeks the shape of the GS is highly non-specific. If the rest of the scan is normal (sounds like it is) things seem okay for now. Good wishes.
