Question

I'm a bit concerned after my recent ultrasound scans. At 4 weeks and 3 days, the yolk sac was present, but there was no fetal pole. Then, in the second scan at 6 weeks and 4 days, neither the yolk sac nor the fetal pole was visible. Plus, I'm not experiencing any pregnancy symptoms. Is this something normal, or should I be worried?

Its understandable to be concerned, but its not uncommon for early ultrasounds to show no fetal pole or yolk sac, especially if conception occurred later than expected. However, the absence of a fetal pole at 6 weeks could suggest a possible miscarriage or an ectopic pregnancy. It's important to follow up with your doctor for further evaluation and guidance.

I'm a 37-year-old woman and recently I had a lot of vaginal discharge with some itching, so my doctor gave me clingen forte vaginal capsules. I finished the whole treatment and I'm not having those symptoms anymore. But now I'm five days late for my period, and I'm wondering if its possible that clingen forte could be causing this delay?
