How Can Mniotic Fluid Level Be Increased When Taking ARG 9?

Hi,
I am 35 weeks pregnant and it has been observed that my amniotic fluid is grossly reduced. I am worried about it, and taking ARG 9 sachet twice daily as per doctors prescription. Are there any other ways to increase the level of liquor so that the movements and growth of fetus will be fine.
Can you please help me.

Hello, I would be happy to help you with your questions.

A decrease in amniotic fluid is extremely concerning during pregnancy. It is a sign that the placenta is not functioning normally. There are no measures to increase the amniotic fluid. At your gestational age, there needs to be an aggressive plan to follow you closely and early delivery is likely. Talk with your OB about this and develop a plan for the safety of you and your fetus.

I hope that this helps and good luck!
