I'm taking Susten 200mg tablets twice a day during my luteal phase, as my doctor recommended. It's supposed to be for 10 days, but after 8 days, I started bleeding. Does this mean I'm not pregnant? Is it normal to bleed before finishing the Susten tablets since they're progesterone? Im unsure if I should continue taking the last two days' worth of tablets.

I'm really worried because I'm about 12 weeks into my pregnancy and I feel like I need to consider my options. Is there an abortion pill available in my country's pharmacies that I could get without having to see a doctor?

Question

I'm really worried about my cousin's situation because her amniotic fluid levels have been decreasing again. She had it at 4.6 cm at 32 weeks, then after taking the L-arginine sachets three times a day, it went up to 8.6 cm by 34 weeks. But now it's down to 4 cm again at 36 weeks. The baby's growth and blood supply looked normal in the Doppler scan. The doctor said to have another scan in 4 days. Why might the fluid be going down again, and does this mean she'll still be able to have a normal delivery?
