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 really worried because I've noticed some dark blue veins showing up on my breast, and there's been some pain too. I'm not married, but I do have a boyfriend and we're sexually active. My last period was on December 23rd, so I'm really confused about why this is happening. Could you help me figure out what might be going on?

mastitis and thrombophlebitis of the breast veins should be ruled out consult surgeon for further evaluation and treatment.
