Suggest Treatment And Diet To Increase Amniotic Fluid Level
As I m in 36 week of pregnancy, My fetus growth is normal , 2478gm, but I have been diagnosed with border line amniotic fluid, Is this matter of worry, what should I do to increase the quantity of fluid , should I take some particular diet. Further, doctor has suggested ARG-9.

Dear member
Thanks for writing.
Decreased amniotic fluid is indicative of decreased blood flow to baby.
The ARG9 increases blood flow and hence increases amniotic fluid.
You should also rest in lateral position and take 6-8 glasses of water.
Also take tab astamyin forte twice a day. This has amino acids which improve growth.
You will need Doppler ultrasound and NST to check on the baby growth once a week.
As your baby has gained enough weight there is not much risk.
If any time the amniotic fluid decreases then immediately delivery or Caesarean section has to be done.
Please write back if you have any concerns to Dr bhagyashree
