Hello, recently we got to know that my wife is pregnant and we went to a gynaecologist recommended by my close friends. The doctor told us to do a few blood tests for pregnancy confirmation. After the results of the report, we got to know that she is 100 percent pregnant. Also, she is found with a little bit high blood pressure. She suggested folic acid capsules, sachets of AGS 90 for BP control, and progesterone. So we asked why she suggested progesterone drug in early pregnancy but the answer was not satisfactory, and we have read many myths about progesterone. Now we are confused whether it is safe to take progesterone? And why did she recommend this drug to my wife?

Progesterone is commonly given in early pregnancy to support the uterine lining and reduce the risk of miscarriage. It is considered safe and frequently prescribed as a precaution.

Mam I had unprotected sex on 2nd October. She got her periods on 8th October with normal periods. If I want to be fully 100 percent assured that she is not pregnant what to do and when to do? If I take a beta hcg test then when can I take it for the perfect and final result? Will one time test be fine or is a second time test required if the first time I get a negative result? Please answer and clear my doubt sir and mam.

I am 30 years old and have been trying to conceive for four years without success. All my test reports are normal, so the doctor advised IUI. I did it in September but there was no positive result. My period started on 28/10. My last period was brown with little discharge for three days. Since then, I am feeling lower abdomen cramps and pain, watery discharge when I do a little more work, and sometimes burning. Please suggest any solution?
