I'm really worried because my wife is 9 weeks pregnant and she's been dealing with a UTI. Her urine culture and sensitivity report confirmed it. Our gynecologist initially prescribed her Niftas 100mg twice a day for 10 days, but after 7 days we did another urine test and it still showed bacteria. The doctor now suggested Uriliser Stafcure cv 250mg and Pantop 40 for another week and then a follow-up urine test. We're both really concerned about the safety of these medicines during pregnancy. She's naturally hesitant to take meds right now and quite scared. Could you please advise us on what we should do?

It is important to treat UTI properly to prevent any complications. The medications prescribed by your gynecologist are considered safe during pregnancy. Uriliser helps to alleviate symptoms of UTI, Stafcure cv 250mg is an antibiotic that targets the bacteria causing the infection, and Pantop 40 helps to reduce stomach acid and prevent any gastric issues that may arise from the antibiotics. It is crucial for your wife to complete the full course of medication as prescribed to effectively clear the infection. UTIs can lead to more serious issues if left untreated, especially during pregnancy. Repeating the urine test after completing the course of these medications will help ensure that the infection has been successfully treated. Encourage your wife to follow the treatment plan as advised by the doctor for the health and safety of both her and the baby.

I'm pregnant and have been prescribed natural micronised progesterone sustained release tablets 200mg and progesterone softgel capsules 200mg. Are these safe to take during pregnancy? I'm just a bit worried and want to make sure everything's good for my baby.

Yes, both natural micronised progesterone sustained release tablets and progesterone softgel capsules 200mg are commonly prescribed during pregnancy to support the luteal phase and prevent miscarriage, especially in cases of progesterone deficiency. However, it's essential to follow your doctor's guidance for safe usage during pregnancy.

I've missed my periods, and it's been three weeks now. When I took a pregnancy test during the second week, the line was darker, but in the third week, it seemed a bit lighter. What does this mean? Im a bit worried and would appreciate some guidance.
