U can also apply heparin gel locally for 3 days and routinely give paracetamol 2-3 times daily in proper dose. That vl help both to reduce pain and fever. Its definitely painful for both child and parents but you should assure yourself that almost all Indian infant is going through the same.

Low dose aspirin is useful in those with history of pregnancy loss at or more than 13 weeks. HCG that is human chorionic gonadotropin gives support to corpus luteum, which produces progesterone. Hormone progesterone is very much essential for the continuation of pregnancy. Low molecular weight heparin helps to improve live birth rate in high risk pregnancies like that of antiphospholipid antibody syndrome and recurrent pregnancy loss.

Even after 3 miscarriages there is more than 60% chance of uneventful pregnancy. Hope in your case, uterine anomalies, apla syndrome has been ruled out. Hope your thyroid function and blood sugar are normal.
You take folic acid and ecopsrin and as soon as you conceive its better to empirically start low molecular weight heparin injection and duphaston. Also a suggestion to get a first trimester combined screening for aneuploidy done at 12 weeks followed by a cervical circlage. Best wishes.

On 11 jun 2021, steve suffered (a) a bad persistent migraine through the entire day. The migraine worsened when Mr. butler stood up. When he stood up, he felt like his head was going to explode. (b) a bad chesty cough that worsened when he stood up from a seated position or when he moved. He had some phlegm on his chest but only a tiny amount of yellow phlegm was brought up when he coughed. (c) felt utterly exhausted. This feeling was not improved after rest. On 21 june 2021 he was admitted into hospital because steve felt like his lungs were closing up and he needed oxygen to breathe.

The result of the test is that it was rising (24, 52, 85, 225). The doctor said this was most likely related to the co-amoxyclav or dexamethasone received. In the afternoon of 2 july 2021, he was discharged. He was advised to take tinzaparin 4500 units continuously for 7 days to thin the blood to avoid the risk of blood clots in the legs or lungs.
