How soon do pregnancy symptoms start to go away once blighted ovum is diagnosed?

Katie T asked:


I had an ultrasound at 6w and there was a yolk sac, but my u/s at 7w4d showed an empty sac. I am now 8w4d and I am still having the same pregnancy symptoms and my hcg levels are still rising but are low and not raising very quickly. after the 7w4d u/s they were only about 7000. Why do I still feel pregnant?

    You feel pregnant, because you are pregnant.
    Just because they told you that you have a blighted ovum does not mean that your pregnancy goes away right when diagnosed.
    You will need to wait for your body to naturally abort your pregnancy – or the doctor will need to do a d&c.
    Soon after either one, your symptoms will start to go away.

    After my miscarriage, my symptoms started fading away within a week.
    So sorry you have to go through this. I know what it’s like.

    Good luck to you!

    In till you pass the sac you will feel pregnant. Your body will still produce the hormone. It should happen soon.
