Natural Micronised Progesterone Health Feed

Asked for female, 27 years old from Alappuzha

My cousin is having PCOS and irregular periods she has been trying to conceive for 2 years. From last january, she is having induced periods. Last month doctor gave her tab siphene 50 mg for 5 days from 2 nd day of periods along with metformin 500. She told that she had all symptoms of ovulation like sore breast and clear cervical mucus and she got her periods naturally. This month she didn't take tab siphene and she told that she don't think she ovulated. Her last periods was on june 27. This month she is going to take cap susten without waiting for 10 days and without taking a pregnancy test. Is it safe to take cap susten if she is pregnant?

I am 39 years old, 9 weeks pregnant, conceived through ivf, I gave had 2 failed ivf cycles and 1 miscarriage at 14 weeks. The transfer was done in india & now I am in uae. I have been using vaginal tablets endogest 200 (2-2-2 daily) each capsule has progesterone ip 200 mg (micronised). The Dr. here has suggest to skip those tablets & use a vaginal gel crinone 8%,each application has 90 mg dose of progesterone which has to be applied once daily. My concern is that the dosage does not seem similar. Also as per my recent scan the baby has been developing fine, apart from the suppositories I am taking evadiol/ aspirin/ folic/ duphaston/ aquagest injection & argimust sachets. On the day of the scan the Dr. also prescribed injection primolut depot. 2 ml to be taken just once. I am confused, if it's ok to switch to the gel, when everything is going fine, also the dosage seems different. Please advice.

Hello, as you are in early pregnancy susten tabs are natural progesterones and provide support to pregnancy thereby decreasing chances of threatened miscarriages. So they are safe in pregnancy and can be used till 10-12 weeks till placentation is complete and viability of the foetus has been established.

Asked for female, 35 years old from Delhi

Hi, I am 7 week pregnant. Had a missed abortion in 2016 n this is my 2nd gestation after that. I have undergone ovulation induction for 3 cycles. Now my doctor suggested me to take susten 300 mg for 6 weeks, but earlier when I was taking this, had low bp issues n many other side effects. Should I go for this tablet, c has also suggested hucog5000 injection for one month. I am really confused about susten, though I know its importance but m afraid of its side effects. I am a ltl hesitant to ask my gynae. I just want to know, how urgent it is n is there any alternative I mean in injection form. I am 35 years and 2 months old.

I am trying to get pregnant from one year but it is not happening. I consulted a doctor. After my period she did a scan on my 17th day and gave a injection called fertigyn hp10000. After that she scanned after two days and said egg was ruptured and said me to take duphaston and gestofit 200 mg tablets for 15 days. And said to do pregnancy test after completion of tablets. Even I am getting abdominal pain. Can I get surely pregnant this time or not?

Possibility yes, surely NO.
Any couple desirous of pregnancy and not getting same naturally must meet Gynecologist or infertility specialist accepting facts that it needs many reports and different trials of treatment. Means couple must have patience and go to one in whom they have trust to stick for long time.

Hello, Thanks for the query.
Madam you have mentioned three different medications plus Levothyroxine for hypothyroidism. There is absolutely nothing said about why the other three drugs are being prescribed. Plus there is no mention about TSH level or any symptoms. So there is no way to give any suggestions or make any comments. Thanks.
