I'm really curious about the benefits of taking an hCG injection during the 5th week of pregnancy. Are there any potential downsides to it? I'm just looking to understand what impact it might have, both good and bad.

HCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) injection in the 5th week of pregnancy may help support embryonic development, maintain pregnancy, and prevent miscarriage, particularly in cases of threatened abortion or history of recurrent miscarriages; however, potential disadvantages or risks include multiple pregnancy, ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS), and allergic reactions, although these risks are relatively low when administered properly under medical supervision.

View allHey, I'm really worried because my D-Dimer level is at 670 ngmL, which I know is higher than the normal range of up to 500 ngmL. I've also tested positive for COVID and I'm 36 weeks pregnant. I'm really concerned about the risks of blood clots in the placenta. Can you tell me how I might be able to bring my D-Dimer levels down? Also, is it necessary and safe for me to take a Clexane 60 mg injection? Would really appreciate your guidance on whether it's mandatory.

I'm feeling a bit anxious because I was on Duphaston 10mg once a day from the 15th to the 28th day of my cycle. After that, I did a pregnancy test, and it came back negative. I even got a Beta HCG test on the 28th day, which was also negative, and another urine pregnancy test on the 32nd day, and it was negative again. Normally, my cycle is pretty regular at 27-28 days. So now Im wondering, how many days after stopping Duphaston should I expect my period to start?
After stopping Duphaston, you can expect your periods to resume within 3-7 days, as Duphaston is a progesterone medication that regulates menstrual cycles, and its withdrawal typically triggers menstruation; given your regular 27-28 day cycle, you may experience your period around 3-5 days after stopping Duphaston, but this can vary from person to person.
