hello there! i am 15weeks pregnant and i had a brown discharge spot last night after I passed stool. Just went to my OB a while ago & prescribed me to have a weekly injection of Proluton Depot 250mg til my whole pregnancy. Is this normal? Is it okay to take Proluton til I give birth? Is there any side effects? The brown discharge is not continuous and when i smelled it is like a normal discharge not blood.
Hi, Proluton is an injectable form of progesterone hormone given to prevent preterm/miscarriage. But, if you have brownish discharge and an ultrasound done showing the neck of the womb(cervical length)is more than 2.5 centimeters and not open, then you can avoid taking the progesterone. I would like to know if you have had previous pregnancies? Were they full term or preterm? Hope this helps. Regards.
