Q.

Hi doctor, I had my ultrasound at 32 weeks Gestational age as per my LMP but the usg showed the GA as 30 weeks. Moreover, I had my LMP on 5th feb but i know that i conceived between 22nd feb to 25th feb. Could this be the reason for age difference and is it normal? Moreover my AFI at that time was 9cm. Is this leve less?

A. Afi is OK for now and you’re supposed to take lots of water to avoid dehydration which might again reduce the AFI levels. You cannot depend upon the EDD levels given in the late ultrasound scanWrite Your Answer Here

A. An AFI between 8-18 is considered normal. Median AFI level is approximately 14 from week 20 to week 35, when the amniotic fluid begins to reduce in preparation for birth. An AFI < 5-6 is considered as oligohydramnios. The exact number can vary by gestational age.
