[|Human|] Hi, may I answer your health queries right now ? my name is pegah , I am 32 years old and this is my first pregnancy. I have never had miscarriages but when I started bleeding (hematoma) at 12 weeks my Dr decided to give me Proluton depot 500 mg injections. I have had 9 of them and the last one was week 20 (i think)...the hematoma was gone by week 19. i also take prenatal vitamins, extra iron, and a baby aspirin 80 which my Doc will not let me come off just yet. I am now 32 weeks pregnant and all scans have been good so far. I read on WWW.WWWW.WW that proluton 500 mg is category D and it has horrible side effects on the baby. i have not slept since then and have been crying as I am so scared i have permenantly damaged my baby. why would they adminster such a horrible drug? what are the chances that my baby may have future defects? I know my Dr gave me the shots cause it took me 2 years and a month of Clomet to get pregnant and she was and is paranoid I might lose the baby so she did everything to keep the child. But if I knew the side effects of proluton I would never agree to it. Please give me your opinion as I am going crazy and have no one to turn to. Please help. I also read that this drug is not given in any of the advanced countries anymore (i live in Iran).
[|AI|]  Hi, Please do not worry, Proton is given in pregnancy to prevent miscarriage and preterm births, you need not worry about any side effects to the baby. It is routinely given and is also recommended by the American college of obstetrics and Gynecology for use in pregnancy to prevent preterm delivery. You need not worry. Baby aspirin can be taken up till delivery without any harm to baby. Hope this helps. Regards.
