Hello,
Thanks for your interest and inquiry.
Your wife is 10 weeks pregnant and she developed light red spotting.
She was given
1) Human Chorionic Gonadotropins (HCG) to prevent miscarriage and to retain the fetus in its place. Some time it may have to be given till delivery at a periodical interval as per need decided by the Gynecologist.
2) GESTUM - to increase the bioavailability of natural Progesterone.
Indication wise both are same and both are safe.
2) Sylate is to prevent further bleeding. 3 to 5 days is more than sufficient.
Folsafe it is given to ensure the baby's bone development and also helps to prevent bone diseases. Can be used up till delivery
Lupigest 200 is Progesterone Capsule - The duration as per indications, decided by Gynecologist
3) Small blood clots need not be bothered when ultrasound is normal.
4) As she had spotting a rest period is needed - how long to be decided by the treating gynecologist. Afterwards She can do her routine home work along with walking. But climbing up to 3 floors is not advised.
The precaution that is advised is to take adequate rest. If bleeding stops then there is nothing to worry about, as her USG is reassuring.
Along with you I also Pray God for a Normal and safe Delivery
My best wishes for both of you.

Hello Mr. XXXXXXX
Thanks for your follow up inquiry.
1) Tab Ethamsylate is not contraindicated during pregnancy. However, you have to use it with caution after consulting a Dr.
2) As she is having some pinkish discharge, Rest and a consultation by a gynecologist is a must.
