Question : I am 5weeks and 6 days pregnant... I went to ER for cramping... I have bc of PCOS and multiple Miscarriages.. My hcg Tuesday was 3283, Thursday (yesterday) was 4449, today 6503... The ultrasound showed what appeared to be two sacs joined together.. One had nothing in it the other had a yolk sac fetal pole and heart beat 106hr. They said they believe the heart beat just started.. The report states gestational sac with single septate are midline.. Is this viable ? They said the yolk sac and fetal pole looked normal but the gestional sac was abnormal because the septation.. What is this? What should I expect?
They said I have a 18mm subchorionic hemorrhage that needs to be watched.. Could that cause what appears to be septation? During the ultrasound it looked to be two sacs fused together and one side had the yolk sac and fetal
Pole

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Welcome back.

This is exactly what I was trying to tell you. The subchorionic haemorrhage has pushed the pregnancy sac and the pregnancy sac membrane may be appearing as septa. As I said before repeat ultrasound after one week.

If you have further queries, do write to me.

Best wishes,
Dr Rama
