7 weeks pregnant but no fetal pole
I had my first EP scan 2 weeks back and as per the report sac was 5 weeks and 1 day and no fetal pole detected. I got my scan again yesterday and the report was still the same. No fetal pole or cardiac activity found. My LMP is March 6th. As per the current doctor I am consulting, it is not a healthy pregnancy because they are not observing any growth. But still need to wait for 1 more week for another scan. Can you please suggest if I need to terminate this pregnancy of wait? If I wait will there will be any issues in future?
