At 6 weeks of pregnancy, women should go to the hospital for an ultrasound examination to confirm whether it is an intrauterine pregnancy and also to detect fetal heart and fetal buds. This is an important sign of embryonic development, so pregnant women need to pay attention to whether the fetal heart rate and fetal buds appear on time. So, will there still be fetal arrest after the appearance of fetal heart and fetal sprouts?
Even if fetal heart and fetal sprouts have appeared, there may still be cases of fetal arrest, but this possibility is relatively low. If a woman experiences fetal arrest during pregnancy, it is mostly caused by chromosomal problems in the embryo, which is the most common reason for fetal arrest. So it is best for women to undergo a chromosomal examination before pregnancy.
In addition to chromosomal abnormalities, there are many factors that can lead to fetal arrest, such as reproductive tract inflammation, endocrine disorders, and positive immune antibodies in women's bodies. In addition, being infected with viruses and exposed to harmful chemicals in the early stages of pregnancy may also lead to fetal arrest.
Many pregnant women, unaware of the occurrence of miscarriage, only discover it during ultrasound examination. Some women may experience symptoms such as bleeding and abdominal pain when they experience fetal arrest. After examination, if it is confirmed that the fetus has stopped conceiving, everyone should have an abortion as soon as possible to remove the stillborn fetus and avoid uterine infection caused by retention in the uterus.
