Overall EFW is 2720 gm .. amniotic fluid is 9.7 cm. Doppler is also normal . I am scheduled for induced delivery at 38 weeks .. I was on ecosprin till 35 weeks and stopped post that .. is there anything to be worried , can AC be increased in 2 weeks and what is the reason for low AC ? I am also taking arginine twice daily

The reason for the low AC is growth restriction but then the two findings do not corroborate
