I'm about 8 weeks pregnant, and my doctor has given me a prescription for Fertigyn 5000IU. Im kinda worried because I read somewhere that it's not usually prescribed when youre pregnant. Is it really safe to use this?

I've been dealing with a bartholin cyst that's gotten way bigger in the last 3 days and it's making sitting and moving really uncomfortable. This is the third time in 2 years but it usually goes away on its own this time it's much worse. I read about surgical draining but want to avoid that if possible. What can I do to ease this and why do these keep happening?

surgery opinion is advised to the patient.
