Pregnancy- subchrionic hematoma-8 week
I am 8 weeks 4 days pregnant. I have attached my ultrasound report. It shows a single live intrauterine pregnancy with CRL 19.54 mm, FHR 176 bpm, and a subchorionic hematoma of 19 cc involving around 50% of the gestational sac circumference. I had fresh bleeding earlier for 2 days, but it has stopped from last 7 days. I am taking dydrogesterone 20 mg and progesterone 300 mg.
My questions:
How concerning is this hematoma size and 50% sac involvement at this stage? Are there chances that pregnancy will grow normally?
When should I repeat ultrasound to monitor the hematoma? Any additional tests or scans required apart from routine tests or scans?
Subchorionic hematomas are fairly common in early pregnancy and many shrink and resolve on their own with rest, especially once bleeding has already stopped.
Next Steps
Please continue exactly what your treating doctor has prescribed and keep the follow-up scan appointment they've suggested.
Health Tips
Only your doctor, who has your full scan and history, can judge how this specific hematoma is progressing.

You should take an adequate amount of rest. You can do your routine chores at home.
Get a sonography done every week. It is required for monitoring the growth of the embryo.
Anything can happen. It may continue to grow into a healthy baby or else it can end in an abortion too.
