I went to the doctor for an ultrasound. Based on my last menstrual period, the estimated pregnancy is 6.1 weeks. However, the size of the gestational sac suggests about 4.6 weeks. Is it normal to have a two-week difference between these dates?

No, this is not normal. A two-week difference suggests a possible late ovulation or an incorrect date of your last period. It is recommended to have a follow-up ultrasound in a week for clarification and to consult with your gynecologist.

If the pregnancy is progressing normally, everything is fine—it's just a late ovulation.

I still don't quite understand how they calculate it. Could someone kindly explain it in a simple way? Thank you, girls 🙏🏻😅.

For example, the last period was on April 23rd. According to obstetric calculations, it shows 5 weeks and 5 days, but in reality, the ultrasound will show a shorter gestational age. Physically, it's not possible to conceive during that time.

Then, doctors panic, saying nothing can be heard and sending women for a cleaning procedure. However, there are many stories of girls who simply waited patiently and ended up giving birth to healthy babies.

Al An ultrasound estimates the gestational age, not the actual age of the pregnancy.
