Patient's question:
I am 35 years old this year, and I have had two miscarriages. The cause was found to be a lack of, but no treatment was provided. Now I am 8 weeks pregnant. At 50 days, the ultrasound showed a fetal heartbeat, and my progesterone levels were normal. However, the doctor still prescribed progesterone capsules and October Xinyin. After taking them for a week, I have experienced severe morning sickness. I am wondering if I can stop taking the medication. I hope you can give me appropriate advice! (Female, 35 years old)Doctor's answer:
Mainly, pregnant women produce insufficient antibodies to protect the fetus, which can also lead to miscarriage. My suggestion is that if your progesterone levels are normal, you can stop taking progesterone capsules. Now that there is a fetal heartbeat, this is the best indication. However, for safety, it is best to go to a higher-level hospital for a detailed consultation. In addition to receiving standard treatment for fetal demise, patients also need to pay attention to care aspects, such as maintaining a light diet and avoiding spicy foods.
