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'm in a situation where I have a retained product and I'm wondering if it's okay to just wait for it to pass naturally. I haven't had any cramps, fever, or bad-smelling discharge, only some light brown bleeding. Should I consider a surgical method instead, or is it safe to let it resolve on its own?

What retained products are you taking about?? Retained placental bits or abortion.. It has to be removed, some times they get expelled but if not it causes sepsis and shock like condition..

I've been wondering about something. My partner and I recently started having sex, we're not married, and we're doing it regularly a few times a week, including oral, vaginal, and anal. I know it might sound a bit awkward, but I'm curious if having sex that often could actually make my breast and butt size visibly larger? We always make sure to use condoms during penetration.

Engaging in sexual activity, including 3-4 times a week, does not directly increase breast or buttock size. These are influenced by genetics, hormones, and body composition rather than sexual activity. Using condoms during penetration is a great practice for safe sexkeep it up!
