I've been taking Meprate for my periods, but I'm still experiencing scanty ones. Is this normal? Can I expect my periods to become heavier like they used to be? How long should I wait to see changes?

I'm trying to conceive but recently had 15 days of continuous bleeding after taking Siphene. My doctor recommended taking Progynova 2mg, but I'm a bit scared about how it might affect my chances of conceiving. Can you explain how Progynova works in this situation?
Since you have prolonged bleeding days ,doctor would have suggested you this.progynova is not a ovulation inducing drug. But it certainly helps to stop stop which is very important right now. It may alter harmonal balance but will not prevent ovulation. So this tab as such don't act as contracepive.

I'm just wondering if it's safe to go for a normal delivery with my amniotic fluid index measuring between 9 and 10 cm. I'm currently 36 weeks and 2 days pregnant. Should I be concerned, or is it generally okay at this stage?
your AFI of 9-10 cm is in the normal range and should not pose a concern for your delivery. Normal delivery can proceed, but your doctor will consider other factors during labor and delivery. Always follow your doctor's advice and keep attending your prenatal appointments to monitor both your health and the baby's well-being.
