hi afi 7.5 is low and will also recommend you to take a ultrasound Doppler and get your blood pressure checked and urine for proteins. also I would suggest you to take arginine granules sachet twice a day. also take mamas proteinex powder 2 tsf once daily in a glass of milk and one capsule of astymin forte. keep a watch on fetal movements and should be more than 12 in 24 hours .take care all the best.
