Many people who suspect they are pregnant but cannot remember the date of their last period may feel confused about how to calculate the gestational age or find information that matches their timeline. Don’t worry, because there are other options that can help you accurately assess the gestational age.
How to assess gestational age when you can’t remember your menstrual cycle
1. Ultrasound is the most accurate method for assessing gestational age. Doctors will measure from the size of the gestational sac or the size of the fetus to directly calculate the gestational age.
2. Blood test to measure hCG hormone levels The hCG hormone increases continuously during pregnancy. The level of this hormone can also indicate which stage of pregnancy the body is in.
3. Consult an expert If you’re unsure where to start, you can talk to a counseling team to assess the overall situation and help guide the next steps accurately.
