Empty Sac with Delayed Yolk Sac Development: Next Steps_

Given the initial empty sac at 8 weeks and the subsequent appearance of a 3.5mm yolk sac, the situation is uncertain. A yolk sac size of 3.5mm is smaller than expected for an 8-week pregnancy.

_Possible Scenarios:_

1. _Delayed embryonic development_: The embryo might be developing slower than expected.
2. _Miscarriage or failed pregnancy_: Unfortunately, this is also a possible outcome.

_Recommended Actions:_

1. _Wait for a few more days_: Schedule a follow-up ultrasound in 7-10 days to reassess the pregnancy.
2. _Monitor hCG levels_: Track your human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) levels to ensure they're rising appropriately.
3. _Prepare for possible outcomes_: Understand that the pregnancy may not be viable, and be prepared for that possibility.
Please consult your gynaecologist
