General & Family Physician 's  Response
Dear- thanks for using our service, I understand your concern ,specially after having an ectopic pregnancy.Now you are pregnant again,the uterus has a normal size for a 5 weeks and 6 days of pregnancy. The yolk sac is where the embryo is localized. However, it is too early in pregnancy to be able to hear the fetal heart beat for which they recommended close follow up. I would advise you to continue basic care ,have an obgyn follow up and ultrasound in 4 weeks. No evidence of any mass like ovarian lesion (that is the meaning of no adnexal mass) or ectopic pregnancy.
I hope that my advise has been helpful
