Brief Answer:
Suggestive of missed abortion.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
Absence of cardiac activity at 7 weeks is suggestive of a missed abortion. Fetus is less likely to grow now. in case there is no cardiac activity on repeat scan then an abortion may be needed. Such early trimester abortions are usually due to chromosomal anomalies.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
