What is a gestational bag?

Gestational SAC is a structure that surrounds the embryo, a child in a very early stages of development. It closes not only the embryo, but also the amniotic fluid that helps nourish and protect the developing child. Gestational bag is the structure of ultrasonic technicians looking for when they need to confirm the presence and viability of early pregnancy. In fact, this may be the first structure of pregnancy that ultrasonic technicians can see in early pregnancies.

In the first weeks of pregnancy, a woman may perform a pregnancy test and miss the period. These things often serve as a confirmation that a woman is pregnant. Unfortunately, it is not a 100% reliable confirmation. A woman may miss the period for many reasons and pregnancy tests may be incorrect. For example, a woman may have a chemical pregnancy, which means that the eggs are fertilized, but do not apply to the uterus of a woman. To confirm a healthy pregnancy that progresses as it should, some obstetrics order of early ultrasounds. Obstetricians often use for pregnantNsti gestational data, which means that a woman has been pregnant for five weeks when five weeks have taken place since the last menstrual period. In fact, her child may have only three weeks of development by this time. Detection of the gestational bag at this stage is a positive sign. It is not a guarantee that pregnancy is healthy and will continue.

Shortly after visible ultrasound technique, it can be able to detect the yolk bag in it. The yolk bag can be detectable in the middle of the fifth week after the last menstrual period of a pregnant woman. Detection of this structure is an important milestone because the yolk bag is the first nutritional source of the developing embryo. As with a gestational bag, its visibility is visible. However, his absence after the sixth week of pregnancy may be a reason for serious concern.

In some cases, ultrasonic images can show characteristics of gestational SAC that indicate problems with developing pregnancy. For example, it may not grow as expected. After the fifth week, it should grow about 0.0394 inches (1 millimeter) daily until around the ninth week of pregnancy. The gestational bag can be in shape abnormally or even seems empty long after the yolk bag should be visible.
