My doctor prescribed Lupigest SR 200 during my pregnancy, but I read online that it is not safe. Is this medication safe to use?
Yes, Lupigest SR 200 is safe when prescribed by your doctor. It contains natural micronized progesterone, a hormone your body naturally produces to support and maintain a healthy pregnancy. It is commonly used to prevent miscarriage or preterm labor. Online warnings often confuse natural progesterone with synthetic progestins, which are indeed avoided during pregnancy. The natural progesterone in Lupigest is safe and crucial for protecting your pregnancy. Your doctor has prescribed this based on your specific health needs. Please continue to take it as directed and consult your obstetrician for any further concerns.
