Hi,I am Dr. Alexander H. Sheppe (Psychiatrist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi During 4th month of pregnancy, i started taking nexito 10 for antenatal depression. Once i started feeling positive . I reduced the dose and then kind of stopped taking it. The last dose (one tablet)i took was on 7th of march. But now same negative thoughts are coming in my mind again.currently in my 29th week, i am getting up every two hour at night. Also, last scan (28 weeks) increase my worry because my cervix length was 26mm in normal lower range. Having anxiety about labor as well. Is this normal or should i consider taking nexito again. Please suggest... thank you
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Perinatal depression so common a problem and you should not be alarmed about it because the more you are alarmed and the more you are worried about it, the more it disturbs you. Do not fight it. I suggest you to work with your gynecologist to overcome.
