Got my anomaly scan done and the report mentions bilateral notching. Honestly thoda scared hu, I don't understand what it means. Did anyone have this in their scan?
Google will make you feel like your world is ending, seriously! Just close the search tabs, get some sleep if you can, and let your gynac handle this report at your next appointment.
In my pregnancy, they found something similar in my Doppler scan. My doctor monitored me closely and everything turned out perfectly fine, so just trust your gynecologist's advice.
I used to drink coconut water and walk to keep my blood flow good, but bilateral notching is a technical scan thing. You must show this report to your doctor to see if any medication or extra monitoring is needed.
Oh, scan reports can be so scary, haan na? Bilateral notching means blood flow to the uterus has a bit of resistance, but don't worry, your doctor will guide u properly on what to do next.
With my PCOS history, I also had high-risk scans and saw weird terms. Bilateral notching is just a sign that blood flow needs to be monitored, so please consult your doctor for the exact treatment.
Didi, don't get scared looking at the English words in the report. It just means the doctor needs to check how blood is reaching the baby, so go see your doctor soon and they will help you.
Beta, don't stress seeing these big terms on reports. Just rest well, eat simple ghar ka khana with less salt, and show the report to your doctor as soon as possible so they can explain it.
It basically indicates resistance in the uterine arteries which can affect blood flow to the baby. It's quite common but you need to get it checked by your gynac immediately so they can monitor your BP and baby's growth.
