Hi,

I think, your doctor is right in prescribing you the above mentioned drugs during pregnancy. You were already taking metformin and iron even before pregnancy. These are generally safe medicines to be used during pregnancy. Also, Strone is a progesterone, given to maintain a healthy pregnancy and to prevent miscarriage and pre-term delivery. The use of these drugs might have been prescribed by your doctor taking into consideration benefits vs risks.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
