View allI'm 6 weeks pregnant and recently had an internal ultrasound at around 5 weeks 4 days, but it only showed the sac without the fetus pole. They're asking me to come back in 2 weeks for another ultrasound, and honestly, I'm a bit worried. I'm 34 and taking folic acid and Susten 200, but I'm not sure if there's anything else I should be doing, like any specific injections or medicines to help with the fetus development. My doctor mentioned there's a 5050 chance, and since I'm not really experiencing much nausea or sickness, I'm just curious if that could mean anything. What should I be aware of or ask about next?
Given your situation, it's essential to follow your doctor's guidance. Since you're already taking folic acid and Susten 200 (progesterone), continue with these medications as prescribed. *Additional Recommendations* 1. *Progesterone support*: Your doctor may consider additional progesterone support to help maintain the pregnancy. 2. *Fetal development monitoring*: Regular ultrasounds will help monitor fetal development and detect any potential issues early. 3. *Prenatal vitamins*: Ensure you're taking prenatal vitamins containing essential nutrients like iron, calcium, and vitamin D. 4. *Stay hydrated*: Drink plenty of water throughout the day to help maintain a healthy pregnancy. *Addressing Your Concerns* 1. *50-50 chance*: Your doctor's assessment is likely based on the initial ultrasound findings. However, it's essential to remain hopeful and focus on supporting your pregnancy. 2. *Lack of nausea*: Not experiencing nausea or sickness during pregnancy is relatively common, especially in the early stages. 3. *Age-related concerns*: As you're 34 years old, your doctor may discuss age-related risks and recommendations for your pregnancy. *Next Steps* 1. *Follow-up ultrasound*: Attend your scheduled follow-up ultrasound to reassess fetal development.

Our doctor thinks surgery is the best option, but I'm not entirely sure and feel like I need a second opinion on whether this is necessary. What do you think? Could there be any other treatment options we should consider?
Yes,surgery is advised to the patient.Surgeon opinion for further management.

I have a 4.4cm functional follicular cyst on my left ovary with benign features but my periods have been irregular and frequent happening twice recently Will this cyst resolve on its own or do I need surgery
A functional follicular cyst of this size is likely to resolve on its own. It's common for them to disappear within a few months, and your doctor may recommend a "wait-and-see" approach with a follow-up ultrasound to monitor its size. If the cyst doesn't resolve or if you experience symptoms like pain or pelvic fullness, surgery might be considered. Surgery is also recommended if the cyst is very large or if there's suspicion of a more complex cyst
