Does posterior placenta mean boy?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
No, the position of placenta doesn't determine gender of a baby.

Correlation Between Placental Position and Baby's Gender:
- There is no scientifically proven correlation between having a posterior placenta and the baby's gender being male.
- The baby's gender is determined by chromosomes at conception.
-
Placental Position:
- Placental location (anterior, posterior, fundal, etc.) varies naturally among pregnancies.
- It is influenced by factors related to implantation and uterine anatomy.
-
Ultrasound and Gender Prediction:
- Ultrasound can identify placental position but cannot predict gender based on it.
Recommendation:
- If you have concerns about your pregnancy or placental position, consult your healthcare provider for personalized information and reassurance.

View allI'm a bit worried because my last menstrual period was on April 27, 2017, and when I took a home pregnancy test on June 4, it came out positive. I got a blood test on Tuesday with an hCG level of 12579.68. Then, I went for an ultrasound on June 6th. They saw a sac with a fetus, but there was no heartbeat. I'm currently 6 weeks pregnant, and its been two days since that ultrasound. Is it okay for me to go for another ultrasound today to check for a heartbeat?
It is recommended to wait at least one week after the first ultrasound to check for the heartbeat. You can go for another ultrasound around 7 weeks of pregnancy to have a better chance of detecting the fetal heartbeat.

I'm 26 and dealing with irregular periods. My ultrasound showed both ovaries are bulky with multiple small cysts the largest is 0.42cm on the right and 0.35cm on the left. The right ovary measures 3.62x1.98x3.00cm (volume 11.26cc) and the left is 2.84x2.28x3.29cm (volume 11.15cc). My uterus size is 7.35x3.59x4.26cm. Do I need surgery or will medication work? Can this be cured?
gynaecologist opinion is advised to the patient
