I'm 19 weeks pregnant and I got my scan report which says that the placenta is on the posterior wall with grade 3 maturity and is covering the internal OS. Is this something I should be worried about?

I'm currently 22 weeks pregnant and my anomaly scan showed my cervical length at 3.14 cm. My doctor has prescribed me gestofit 300 mg for 30 days as a progesterone supplement. Is this safe for me and the baby? Will it help increase my cervical length? I'd love some advice.

Gestofit 300 mg (progesterone supplement) is generally considered safe for you and your baby, and may help improve cervical length and reduce preterm birth risk, but closely monitor your condition and follow-up with your doctor to adjust the treatment plan as needed.
