Hi, I understand your concern. Your scan shows no yolk sac or fetal pole in USG scan.there was no bleeding. This indicates blighted ovum, when there is no formation of fetus, & empty gestational sac is seen due to chemical pregnancy. This usually terminates automatically in due time,though exact time is unpredictable. There was no sense in taking sustain, as fetal growth can not be achieved . * You should not wait for spontaneous abortion, you should go for surgical abortion , - Usually patient is prescribed with oral contraceptives for three months. supplements with folic acid given to the couple & then pregnancy is planned for good results. Thanks,
