Pregnant. On Innohep And Progesterone. Not Having Low Progesterone Or Clotting Problem. Why Is This Medicine For?

I am currently 37 weeks pregnant and taking innohep and progesterone . I do not have a clotting problem and have no reason to be on it. 3 other Dr. s do not know why I am taking it either. I have been following my OB s instructions but at this point do I really need to stay on it? I did not have low progesterone before getting pregnant, nor do I have a clotting problem.

Hello
Welcome to HCM forum

At 37 weeks there is no requirement of progesterone as the foetus is mature

Best wishes
