Does taking progesterone pills affect the fetus?

Patient's question:

I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? Also, does progesterone pills affect the fetus when pregnant women take them?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, generally you can do an early pregnancy test around day 35 of a missed period or have a blood HCG test 10 days after intercourse to confirm pregnancy. After pregnancy, it's important to rest and maintain good nutrition, and avoid spicy and irritating foods. Regular prenatal check-ups, such as ultrasound for fetal anomaly screening and Down syndrome screening, should be done. The occurrence of gynecological diseases not only affects a woman's health but can also lead to the development of gynecological conditions. Therefore, it's best to visit the gynecology department of a hospital for a vaginal examination to identify the cause and receive targeted treatment. Pay attention to personal hygiene and keep the vulvar area clean.
