US is not typically used to diagnose pregnancy unless the patient presents with vaginal bleeding or abdominal pain early in gestation or is a high-risk obstetric patient.
With the advent of transvaginal US (TVUS), the diagnosis of pregnancy can be made even earlier than is possible with transabdominal US (TAUS).
TVUS is the most accurate means of confirming intrauterine pregnancy and gestational age during the early first trimester. TVUS can help detect signs of intrauterine pregnancy approximately 1 week earlier than TAUS. Patients are not required to have a full bladder and are not required to endure uncomfortable pressure on the abdominal wall from the external probe. TVUS is also better for patients who are obese or those who guard during TAUS. One disadvantage is that some patients are anxious about the transvaginal probe and may object to its insertion. The earliest structure identified is the gestational sac. The GS can be seen on TVUS images by 4-5 weeks' gestation and grows at a rate of 1 mm/d in early gestation. By 5.5-6 weeks' gestation, a double-decidual sign can be seen, which is the GS surrounded by the thickened decidua. The presence of an early GS can be confused with a small collection of fluid or blood or the pseudo GS of an ectopic pregnancy. Because of this, the diagnosis of intrauterine pregnancy should not be made on the basis of visualization of the GS alone.
The diagnosis of intrauterine pregnancy can be made once the yolk sac is present, which also excludes ectopic pregnancy, except in the rare instance of heterotopic pregnancy.
The fetal pole is first seen on TVUS images at approximately 5-6 weeks' gestation. It should always be seen by TVUS when the GS is larger than 18 mm or by TAUS when the GS is larger than 2.5 cm. The fetal pole is a linear hyperechoic structure that grows at approximately 1 mm/d.

What is us pelvis transvaginal?
"US pelvis transvaginal" refers to a transvaginal ultrasound of the pelvic region. This imaging technique uses sound waves to create pictures of the internal organs in the pelvis, including the uterus, ovaries, and cervix. It is commonly used to diagnose conditions such as ovarian cysts, fibroids, and infertility issues.
When do you first have a heartbeat?
When does a baby have a heartbeat? A baby's heartbeat can be detected by transvaginal ultrasound as early as 3 to 4 weeks after conception, or 5 to 6 weeks after the first day of the last menstrual period. This early embryonic heartbeat is fast, often about 160-180 beats per minutes, twice as fast as us adults'!
Your doctor says that an us is more accurate than lmp because a lot of woman don't remember their lmp and that you could ovulate at different times how true is this?
Women have cycles that are not all the same length but most women ovulate 14 days before a period is due. That is what makes the difference. At 7 weeks ultrasounds are accurate to within 3 days. At 20 weeks they are accurate within 5 days When I had my first pregnancy my cycle was 36 days which would mean my EDD would be 8 days early if my LMP was used, my US agreed with my cycle not my LMP. When I had my second pregnancy my cycle was 28 days and my ultrasound agreed with my LMP. So you are saying that the ultrasound is more accurate? Yes, the ultrasound is more accurate. I did go round the houses a bit to say it.

Is chafing on the nipple a sign of pregnancy?
I believe it is, the nipples are more tender in early pregnancy so wearing a regular bra makes them rub on the material and they are so sensitive it could cause chafing... good luck and let us know if you are or aren't...
What is the Legal age to have a baby in Georgia US?

Will it be more accuratif you did the pregnancy blood testor you can use the home pregnancy test in your case?
Home pregnancy test are notoriously inaccurate. Go to your doctor for a serum hcg test. Over the counter urine pregnancy tests are actually quite accurate. They are not as accurate as the blood test that physicians can order, but newer urine tests can detect HCG in the urine as early as 8-10 days after conception - usually before the 1st missed period. See the link below for more information. _____________________________________________________________________ home pregnancy tests claim to be around 99% accurate after a missed period. however, blood tests done at your doctor's office are able to detect levels of HCG much earlier. blood tests are considered around 100% accurate, where as home pregnancy tests are less due to possible errors in timing or errors in performing the test. The answer preceding this one is accurate in that the blood test may be able to tell you if you are pregnant earlier - we can tell you within 3-5 days if you are pregnant. However, the actual utility of the increase in accuracy is questionable. Most people will not even suspect they are pregnant until they miss a period, by which time an over the counter urine test (which cost about 10 dollars) is just as accurate as a urine or blood test done in a doctor's office (and will cost you over 100 dollars, and possibly up to 500 dollars or more if you go to the Emergency department). Bottom line: use a urine pregnancy test at home if you have missed your period and think you may be pregnant. If you are pregnant, see your OB/Gyn or Primary care physician for follow up. A blood test is only useful if you are having problems with your pregnancy to help us work out what may be going on.
Is it safe to get pregnant at age eightteen?
Sadly this depends on where you live in this world. In countries like the US you get great maternal care so it's not dangerous. Pregnancy this early do have more risks though.
What are the changes in your breast in early pregnancy?
"Your pregnancy hormones cause normal breast tissue to transform into milk-producing tissue. This change occurs as early as the first trimester, between 1 to 12 weeks. During early pregnancy, breasts often become larger, tender, and heavier, with the nipples and areola potentially darkening and veins becoming more visible, as the body prepares for milk production. Breasts undergo many changes during early pregnancy, such as: >Tenderness and Swelling >Increased Size >Nipple and Areola Changes >Vein Visibility >Montgomery Glands Find out more information, visit our benecare maternity hospital.
