Is Light Spotting During 15 Weeks Of Pregnancy Normal?
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 injectible 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.
