Patient's question:
What medicine is the best for maintaining pregnancyDoctor's answer:
For pregnant women, medication should not be taken lightly, as it can affect the health of the fetus. Even for medication to prevent miscarriage, it is essential to visit a hospital for a check-up and follow the doctor's advice on whether it is necessary to take medication and which type of medication is more suitable. Do not take medication blindly at home. Generally, when doctors prescribe medication to prevent miscarriage, they often use a combination of miscarriage-preventing pills and vitamin E. Miscarriage-preventing pills have the functions of tonifying qi and nourishing blood, preventing miscarriage, and calming the fetus. If a pregnant woman has qi deficiency during pregnancy, experiences lower back and leg weakness and pain, or has restlessness due to fetal movement, using miscarriage-preventing pills can be very effective. Additionally, for pregnant women with habitual miscarriage, they can take oral medroxyprogesterone (progesterone) along with vitamin E.During pregnancy, miscarriage prevention can also involve traditional Chinese medicine. There are many proven traditional Chinese medicine formulas for preventing miscarriage, and many renowned TCM practitioners specializing in gynecology have their own unique methods. It is advisable to seek their diagnosis and treatment. It is not advisable, reliable, or appropriate for pregnant women to self-select traditional Chinese medicine for miscarriage prevention or to use someone else's prescription.
