I'm a bit anxious about my pregnancy because I had a miscarriage back in February. Now my doctor has suggested taking Susten SR 400 mg in the early stages of this pregnancy. I'm already taking Folvec, Ecosprin 75, and some vitamins. Is it really safe to take this high dosage of Susten SR right now?

Susten SR 400 mg is a high dose of progesterone, typically recommended for women with a history of miscarriage or preterm labor, and while it's generally considered safe, it's essential to follow your doctor's guidance and monitoring, especially when combined with other medications like Folvac, Ecosprin 75, and vitamins, to minimize potential risks and ensure a healthy pregnancy

I've been on Novelon for the last four years, and before I started taking it, I rarely had period cramps. But now, after starting it, I began to experience them, and for the last 23 months, the pain's been so bad that I've had to take painkillers. Is this due to Novelon, or are these just normal period cramps?

I'm 24 years old and married. On Saturday morning, I noticed a small pimple on my breast, and when I pressed it to remove the pus, I noticed some white and clear stuff leaking out. When I checked the other breast, it was also leaking when pressed. I've also been dealing with a cold and cough for about a month, and I've been massaging my body with oil daily from my neck to my stomach. Could this leaking be related to me touching or massaging my breasts daily? What's going on?
