Women who are preparing for pregnancy are anxious. Once they find that their menstrual cycle is delayed, they will eagerly go to the hospital for an ultrasound examination, hoping to find out if they are pregnant through the ultrasound examination. Some women who are preparing for pregnancy will go for a check-up when their menstrual cycle is delayed by one week. Can a 35 day ultrasound be used to see the uterus?
At 35 days of pregnancy, the volume of the gestational sac is very small, and it is difficult to detect its position and condition in the uterus through ultrasound examination. At this time, it is too early to do the examination, and the intrauterine condition examination is not ideal. Therefore, it is not recommended for pregnant women to undergo ultrasound examination at 35 days of pregnancy. To achieve the ideal examination purpose, it is recommended that pregnant women undergo an examination after 6 weeks of pregnancy, as the intrauterine condition will be clear at a glance.
Ultrasound examination in the early stages of pregnancy is of great significance. After 6 weeks of pregnancy, ultrasound examination can show the development status of the gestational sac and understand whether it is developing normally. If no gestational sac is found in the uterine cavity during the ultrasound examination, it may be an ectopic pregnancy and further blood tests are needed for auxiliary examination.
Pregnant women who need to undergo ultrasound examination in the early stages of pregnancy should not do the examination on an empty stomach. At this time, checking the intrauterine situation requires holding urine and filling the bladder in order to see the condition of the uterus more clearly. In order to save examination time, pregnant women can drink a cup of warm water in advance before going out, which can save holding urine time and facilitate smooth examination after arriving at the hospital.
