A member asked:
Is it possible to see a fetal pole, but no yolk sac? isn't the fetal pole a measurement of the outer yolk sac?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yolk sac: The yolk sac is visible and growing from about week 5-10. Then, it begins to decrease in size and ultimately disappears. If the doctor sees a fetal pole with a heartbeat then visualization of a yolk sac is not particularly important.
