Hello. I Have A Very Important Question That Has Been

default
Posted on Thu, 18 Oct 2018
Question: Hello. I have a very important question that has been on my mind and I can’t let it go even tough 2 doctors confirmed otherwise. I would like another confirmation. I had a period on Feb 24 to Feb 26, my periods are very Regular. They happen every 27-28 days and always have lasted 3 days. I had unprotected intercourse on March 12th, never the less the guy came outside of me. I had a normal period on March 22-24. Around April 12th I started having sore breasts so I took a pregnancy clear blue test on April 16th. Giving me a positive and saying 1-2 weeks since conception. I went to my Gynecologist on the 18 of April, but ultrasound revealed nothing but an enlarged endometrium. I took a Blood test looking for pregnancy hormone and it came back with a value of 97 MIu/mL. Which my doctor said was too low and to retest in 5 more days. I did and that one came back with 1053 MIu/mL, after this I started taking prenatal vitamins. I retested on 4 days having a result of 3881 MIu/mL. Had an ultrasound on the next day, making the LMP and ultrasound match at 5.1 days. We only saw a gestational sack, no embryo. I went back at 8.5 weeks and had an ultrasound, ultrasound again matching exactly to the day from LMP. I had another one yesterday at 12.5 weeks from LMP, embryo measuring 12.6 weeks.

Another high definition ultrasound ( the one looking for malformations) at 14.3 weeks LMP, embryo measuring 14.1 weeks.

Another one at 16.5 weeks LMP, embryo measuring 17.0 weeks.

One more at 19.4 weeks LMP. Embryo measuring 19.6 (this one also high-def, looking for gender and malformations). Girl, all normal.
And one more at 21.5 weeks LMP. Embryo measuring 21.6

Another at 24.4 weeks LMP embryo measuring 25.0 weeks.
They’re all super accurate with LMP.

My question is, is there any any any Chance at all that the conception happened in March and not in April?? Is ther any chance at all there was fecundation and the egg survived menstruation and then implanted?

Or that the fertilized egg just didn’t grow for weeks.

Or that the ultrasounds are off 3-4 weeks?

Any chance at all? Or 0%?
I’m paranoid. Can’t stop thinking about it.

Please i need Some insight.

Thank you.

Brief Answer:

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
I have gone through your query and understand your health concerns ,
According to your detailed history you had a normal period after intercourse on 12th March. Also all the ultrasound scans match and suggest the LMP to be 22nd March. The clear blue test and the blood test also indicates that the conception happened after 22nd March. There is no doubt that the conception happened after 22nd March. No need to worry. So many ultrasound scans cannot be off by 3-4 weeks.
I hope this answers your query.
