Ghost/IVF nurse u/s question

Post by kimmysq »

Hello, I was reading another message board and one of the ladies wrote this

"I have researched the Doppler scan..they say it can heat the flesh under the bone of a fetus up to 10 degrees F. I question the loss of my Twin over this???"

I have never heard this, nor researched this. I am just wondering what you know about this, and should I try to limit the amount of u/s I get when I am pg?
Any advice would be appreciated.

I've never heard that.
Avoid IVF and surrogacy in Ukraine. Ukrainian centers pay shills to post here under numerous sock accounts pretending to be patients in Ukraine. Centers using such deceptive advertising cannot be trusted and should be avoided.

Neither have I. The few ultrasounds that occur during your pregnancy should not harm the pregnancy.
I am an infertility nurse and I work in a major IVF facility. I am willing to answer questions and give guidance, however, since I am not treating you, only your physician can give you the most accurate information.
