Infertility Specialist, Dr. Mahesh Koregol's Response

Hi,

I read your query and I understand your concerns.

Following is my reply:

1) Cardiac activity must appear by 6 to 7 weeks.

2) If not appeared please get serial beta hCG blood test to know rising value and hence pregnancy

Let me know if you have anymore questions.

Regards,
Dr. Mahesh Koregol
