  2. Chorionic bump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chorionic_bump

    [1] [2] It is medically defined as a separate entity from a chorionic hematoma. [3] Identification of a chorionic bump in early first trimester pregnancy represents a significant risk factor for pregnancy loss, given a live birth rate of less than 50%. [4] The incidence rate for chorionic bump is estimated to be between 1.5 and 7 per 1000 ...

  3. Gestational sac - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gestational_sac

    During early embryogenesis, it consists of the extraembryonic coelom, also called the chorionic cavity. The gestational sac is normally contained within the uterus . It is the only available structure that can be used to determine if an intrauterine pregnancy exists until the embryo can be identified.

  5. Chorion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chorion

    The chorion and the amnion together form the amniotic sac. In humans it is formed by extraembryonic mesoderm and the two layers of trophoblast that surround the embryo and other membranes; [1] the chorionic villi emerge from the chorion, invade the endometrium, and allow the transfer of nutrients from maternal blood to fetal blood.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blighted_ovum

    When small, the sac cannot be distinguished from the early normal pregnancy, as there may be a yolk sac, though a fetal pole is not seen. In anembryonic pregnancy, levels of the pregnancy hormone human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) typically rise for a time, which can cause positive pregnancy test results and pregnancy symptoms such as tender ...

    The brain divides into 5 vesicles, including the early telencephalon. Leg buds form and hands form as flat paddles on the arms. Rudimentary blood moves through primitive vessels connecting to the yolk sac and chorionic membranes. The metanephros, precursor of the definitive kidney, starts to develop. The initial stomach differentiation begins. [5]

  8. Human embryonic development - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_embryonic_development

    The normal period of gestation (pregnancy) is about nine months or 36 weeks. The germinal stage refers to the time from fertilization through the development of the early embryo until implantation is completed in the uterus. The germinal stage takes around 10 days. [1] During this stage, the zygote divides in a process called cleavage.

  9. Implantation (embryology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Implantation_(embryology)

    Bleeding and spotting are common during the luteal phase of the menstrual cycle, and early stages of pregnancy, but are unrelated to implantation. Implantation bleeding occurs between 7 and 14 days after fertilization, [ 56 ] and is a small amount of light vaginal bleeding or spotting that can occur in early pregnancy due to the blastocyst ...
