What is hydatidiform mole?

This rare condition occurs early in pregnancy when abnormal cell growth is present in the placenta, but there is no viable fetal growth. The fetus will not develop, and the abnormal tissue must be removed.

  • Abnormal menstrual cycles e.g. too early or too late

  • Possibility of being pregnant

  • Heartburn; painful burning feeling in the chest or throat
