During pregnancy, it is necessary to go to the hospital for prenatal check ups in order to understand the development of both the pregnant woman and the fetus. Sometimes during prenatal check ups, doctors may inform pregnant women that the development of the gestational sac is slow, causing them to be particularly worried. So why does the gestational sac grow slowly?
The slow growth of gestational sac is mainly due to the following reasons:
1. Threatened miscarriage and external factors
Slow growth of the gestational sac may be caused by threatened miscarriage, vaginal bleeding, viral infection, physical and chemical stimulation, or the embryo itself. So it is best to undergo a comprehensive examination before pregnancy to understand one's own physical condition. Pay attention to the living environment before and during pregnancy, and avoid environments that are harmful to the body.
2. Luteinizing hormone deficiency
This is also the main reason for the slow growth of the gestational sac, and insufficient luteinizing hormone can easily lead to the cessation of embryonic development. So in the early stages of pregnancy, it is necessary to regularly check for progesterone. If progesterone is insufficient, an appropriate amount of progesterone should be given to protect the fetus. After protecting the fetus for a period of time, check if the gestational sac has grown. As long as the protection effect is good, it can generally be saved.
In short, slow growth of the gestational sac is an abnormal condition, and the specific cause needs to be determined through detailed examination. The process of pregnancy is quite complex, as sperm enter the uterus, combine with eggs, and enter the uterine cavity to grow until they gradually mature. During this process, there will be different changes, so it is important to visit the hospital regularly during pregnancy to understand the development of the embryo. If any abnormalities occur, they must be dealt with promptly.
