Pregnancy - Ultrasound abnormal.

Hi. I am 29 and 6 weeks pregnant. My first pregnancy.
I was in the emergency room yesterday because the nurse hasn't seen any yolk sac or fetal pole. She was afraid I am having ectopic or miscarriage.
My Hcg levels were 1600 on March 29 (6 days before yesterday) and last night it was 7571. (Didn't really doubled )

The impression was:
1. There is a small cystic structure withen the endometrium measuring 0.77 cm. probably intrauterine pregnancy at 5 weeks and 3 days. close followup ultrasound and HCG is recommended.
2. Trace free fluid in the left adnexa.

When they gave me the papers she told me that it's not ectopic and the dates were probably miscalculated and I am only 5 weeks and 3 days and not 6 weeks as i thought. (Although i know i ovulated on March 6th) . She gave me impression that everything is ok and I should come back in a few days to check it again.
When i got home I looked at the impression and start to google it and i saw that "trace free fluid in the left adnexa" can mean ECTOPIC.

I am so confused. Please help me understand whats going on.

Thank you so much !!

I went through the same thing. They didn't see a sac or pole because it was so early. Ask to have blood work repeated 4 days from the last one and another ultrasound at 7 weeks, based on their calculations. Even with knowing when you ovulated, it could take a couple days to meet up with sperm. A couple days off this early is huge. Good luck.

Ask your doctor. They can probably explain things better.
