I'm about 6 weeks pregnant and I've been having this light green vaginal discharge every day since week 4. There's no itching, but I'm really worried about why it's happening. I'm on thyroxine, progesterone, and folic acid tablets. Could this be related, or should I be concerned about something else?

Is it okay to take Cobadex Forte during pregnancy? My wife is six months pregnant and we just switched her doctor today. Before, she was taking Uprise XT and Aaa calcium pills. Could you guide us on the right time she should take this medicine? We're a bit concerned about making sure everything is safe for her and the baby.

Cobadex Forte is generally considered safe during pregnancy, but it's essential to use it only under the guidance of a doctor. It's best taken after meals to improve absorption and reduce any potential stomach upset.
