Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
An irregular gestational sac with no cardiac activity is not suggestive of a viable fetus. This is most likely a missed abortion. You can wait for a week more and get a repeat scan done for confirmation.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you. You can consult me again directly through my profile URL http://bit.ly/Dr-Rakhi-Tayal
