Hi.Thanks for writing on HCM.
Isoxsuprine prevents premature labor; HCG supports pregnancy and helps to enhance the production of hormones responsible to sustain pregnancy.
In my opinion both are very essential and have proven safety and have to be used in condition like double uterus(didelphys) to prevent abortion/miscarriage.
Hope this answers your query.

Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this uterus didelphys your wife has. Isoxsuprine has no controlled findings as concerns its possible impact in an unborn child. t is strongly advised not to take this drug unless the reasons for taking it are so so strong. I don't understand why she should be on HCG during pregnancy. it is a natural hormone which is produced during pregnancy. It cannot be any additional threat to her health or that of the baby as this is already present in her system


I hope you find this helpful. Thank you for using our services and please feel free to ask for more information if need be. I wish you the best of health.
