Can a baby hide on an ultrasound?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
No. In the early weeks, up to eight, and rarely nine, the baby may not be seen by an ultrasound. The abdominal scan may miss it, a TVS will usually pick up the baby by 6 weeks , but it too may miss it in this period. But after this, ie after 9 weeks there is no question of the scan missing the baby.

I'm certain there wasn't any ejaculation or actual penetration, but I can't stop thinking about it. Is there a real risk of getting pregnant this way?

What are my options to remove fibroids and still keep my uterus? Can it be done through the vagina or is open or laparoscopic surgery the only way? I'm worried about the recovery and which method would be best for me.
Myomectomy under laparoscopic guidance is advised to the patient.
