When women reach a certain stage of pregnancy, they can go to the hospital for B-ultrasound examination. Through the examination, the presence of the gestational sac and the pulsation of the fetal heart and buds can be seen, which indicates that the fetal development is normal. However, some women may also find the presence of liquid shadows during the examination. Sometimes women may confuse this situation with the gestational sac. So, what is the difference between the gestational sac like fluid area and the gestational sac?
The difference between the gestational sac like fluid area and the gestational sac is that the gestational sac has a shape and is echoless under ultrasound. However, the gestational sac like fluid area has no shape, although both can test the health of the mother and fetus. During pregnancy, women should rest appropriately to avoid overexertion. After one week, they should undergo an ultrasound follow-up to see if the liquid dark area has shrunk.
The majority of gestational sac like fluid areas are caused by intrauterine fluid accumulation, so further comprehensive examination is necessary to determine the specific situation, prevent the expansion of the fluid area, and even prevent the continuous increase of fluid accumulation. However, each woman's pregnancy situation may be different, so the fluid area may be absorbed by individuals on its own, and some may require medication treatment.
At 5 weeks of pregnancy, the presence of a gestational sac can be seen on ultrasound. At this time, the gestational sac is still relatively small, and by 7 weeks, it is about 2 centimeters. At the same time, fetal heartbeat can also be seen. Women should undergo regular prenatal check ups to determine if the fetal development is within normal range.
