  • Is This a Blighted Ovum?

    QUESTION

    Dear Jane,

    I am currently 7 weeks, 3 days pregnant. My HCG levels have been doubling every 40 hours. The levels were 172, 1494, 10,301.

    I underwent IUI and became pregnant during my first cycle.

    At my 5 week and 7 week ultrasounds, there was only a gestational sac visible, measuring 5 mm and 6.6 mm, respectively. My doctor said does not look good and will probably miscarry. I should also mention I have a tilted uterus. I am not really having any cramping or bleeding.

    So my questions are:

    Dear Ultrasound Expert,

  • What Effect Will a Partial Uterine Septum Have?

    QUESTION

    Dear Ms Ultrasound,
    I just had my 7½ week ultrasound today. I was told I have a uterine septum, I think she said a partial one. I don't think the baby has implanted on the septum.

    Will the partial septum cause any problems with the rest of the pregnancy or delivery? I have had a blighted ovum and missed abortion in the past.

    Thank you in advance for any information you are able to give to me.

  • Heartbeat, Then Blighted Ovum?

    QUESTION

    Dear Ms Ultrasound,

  • Good HcG Levels, But Only a Gestational Sac

    QUESTION

    Dear Ms Ultrasound,
    I'm not sure whether to worry about this or not. I had my last period between June 10th through June 14th. My OB confirmed the pregnancy and I haven't had any bleeding. My HcG levels my levels were good. Since I miscarried last year, she sent me for an ultrasound for viability and dates.

    At my first ultrasound the sonographer saw an empty gestational sac. She said I may have a blighted ovum.

    The following day I had more blood drawn for HCG levels. My levels were rising as they should. The OB said not to worry about a blighted ovum.
