Does a pregnant woman need medication for fetal health when supplementing nutrition?

Patient's question:

Do you need to supplement nutrition and medication during pregnancy to support your body? Do you need medication to prevent miscarriage? For example, medication like oral liquid for preventing miscarriage. A doctor prescribed me some medication for preventing miscarriage, along with vitamin E and folic acid tablets. Do I need these? When do I need them, and what dosage?

Doctor's answer:

You currently show no signs of discomfort, and both progesterone and HCG levels are normal. It is not advisable to take medication arbitrarily. Whether to take progesterone supplements depends on the results of the ultrasound examination. If there is no bleeding in the uterine cavity, continue taking folic acid supplements (Salian) to prevent neural tube defects in the fetus, and continue monitoring. Progesterone supplements are not necessary.
Generally, doctors recommend that women with signs of genetic risks for adverse pregnancy outcomes maintain good personal hygiene and avoid sexual activity. Additionally, patients should create an environment conducive to emotional stability and stress relief. Wishing the patient a healthy delivery.
