Yes, these symptoms are very common. Both oral progesterone and the hCG trigger shot can delay your period and cause breast tenderness and cramping, mimicking early pregnancy. Since it has been 17 days since your trigger shot, the hormone should be out of your system. Testing now, on cycle day 33, will provide a highly accurate result. If the test is negative and your period does not start within a few days, or if the severe cramping worsens, please reach out to your doctor to rule out cysts and ensure you are safe.

Your doctor likely prescribed both Duphaston (dydrogesterone) and Susten SR (progesterone) to provide dual-action hormonal support to secure your pregnancy. This combination is a safe, common clinical practice. These medications are also safe to take alongside your daily Metformin, Folic acid, Vitamin D, and Thyronorm (levothyroxine), which are vital for managing your thyroid, insulin levels, and supporting fetal development. You are doing a wonderful job caring for your health, and it is highly recommended to continue these as prescribed while keeping your obstetrician updated.

Susten contains progesterone, a hormone crucial for supporting your pregnancy in the first trimester. Taking it on alternate days can be safe and is a common maintenance or step-down regimen, depending on your specific hormonal needs and pregnancy history. Since advice varies based on your unique clinical picture, I gently encourage you to have an open discussion with your primary obstetrician to clarify the reasoning behind their specific recommendation.

Yes, it is generally safe and very common to use Susten 400 (progesterone) vaginally during early pregnancy, such as at 5 weeks. Progesterone is a vital hormone that supports the lining of your womb to help maintain a healthy pregnancy. Administering it vaginally is highly effective because it delivers the medication directly where it is needed most, typically causing fewer systemic side effects. Please continue to use this medication exactly as prescribed by your doctor. If you experience any unusual irritation or have further questions, please consult your obstetrician.

After a missed miscarriage and Dilation and curettage, most women do not need extensive tests unless there are repeated losses. Basic evaluation may include thyroid levels, blood sugar, hemoglobin, and sometimes infection screening; your doctor may add more tests if needed. For the next pregnancy, the first ultrasound is usually done around 6?8 weeks to confirm heartbeat and growth?earlier scans can be done if there are symptoms or concern. In your case, growth stopping at 6+5 weeks is unfortunately common in early loss and not related to scan timing. Plan early antenatal checkup next time and start folic acid before conception for better outcomes.

It is completely normal to experience some leakage after using Susten 400 (progesterone) vaginal inserts. This discharge is usually just the melted outer capsule shell, and your body rapidly absorbs the active progesterone it needs, so the leakage won't reduce its effectiveness. While progesterone can often be taken orally, switching routes can change how your body processes the medication and may increase side effects like dizziness or drowsiness. I strongly recommend speaking with your doctor before making any changes to ensure your treatment remains safe and effective for you.
