A member asked:
What does a small irregular gestational sac containing a yolk sac indicate? i have had some bleeding. when is this considered a miscarriage?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Give it time: The yolk sac and gestational sac are the earliest structures to form inside the uterus. If on a repeat US, you dont see a small embryo, it can be correlated with the time of your pregnancy, your hormonal levels and that can be used to determine the viability of the pregnancy.
