If no fetal heart rate or fetal bud is found during the examination, it is necessary to consider embryonic arrest and terminate the pregnancy in a timely manner. What causes the absence of fetal heart rate or fetal bud?
Firstly, it should be considered that there are developmental issues with the embryo itself, mostly due to chromosomal abnormalities. It is also possible that both partners used highly stimulating drugs before pregnancy, the pregnant woman has underlying diseases, and the male sperm quality is not up to standard. In addition, pregnant women are exposed to excessive radiation, heavy metals, chemicals, endocrine disorders, and low progesterone levels during pregnancy, all of which can lead to abnormal fetal development and the absence of fetal heart and buds.
Considering embryonic arrest, it is recommended to terminate the pregnancy as soon as possible, and medication abortion or induced abortion can be chosen. It is important to adjust one's mindset in a timely manner and maintain a happy mood after an abortion. Family members should pay more attention to their emotions. After abortion, it is advisable to avoid eating raw, cold, greasy, spicy, hard, and rough foods in terms of diet, and to eat light foods such as eggs, milk, and vegetables.
Sexual activity is prohibited after abortion. As the uterus is not completely closed, the repair process of the endometrium takes some time. Within two weeks, it is necessary to rest in bed as much as possible, sleep more, and be less active. At the same time, attention should be paid to keeping the external genitalia clean. Within one month, bathing, swimming, and sexual activity are strictly prohibited to prevent bacteria from entering the body and causing infections. Generally, gynecological color ultrasound should be rechecked one week after abortion.
