Upload all test reports.

Detailed Answer:
Hello Dear,

Thanks for writing to us. I understand your concern.

I suggest you to upload or attach of your latest test result and scan reports, which helps me to give a proper guideline in this situation. Let me know few things also:

1) Do you have any bleeding or spotting in 2nd trimester?

2) Are you taking any kind of medication beside Susten or Iron supplements ?

3) Any H/O previous miscarriage or pregnancy loss ? Do you check your current weight gain?

Waiting for your earliest response and attached reports.

Brief Answer:
Reports are OK. Stop susten.

Detailed Answer:
Hello Dear,

Welcome back again. I have reviewed your attached reports.

1) Your all test reports are quite NORMAL including anomaly scan. Therefore, I DON'T suggest to continue SUSTEN at this stage of pregnancy. It is mostly used in the first trimester to support pregnancy and prevent early miscarriage or abortion.

2) Do periodic check up to your doctor. Take prescribed medicine, healthy protein rich diet, drink more water, need adequate bed rest and maintain genital hygiene properly.

Hope, it helps for your information. Wish your good health and take care.
