Do patients with threatened abortion need to take medication for a long time?

Nowadays, more and more pregnant women are experiencing threatened abortion due to reasons such as being too old. As the saying goes, medicine is three-point poison, let alone pregnant women. If the medicine is used for a short period of time, pregnant women can still accept it, but if it is used for a long time, pregnant women will definitely wonder if it will affect the development of the child. In order to comfort the mood of pregnant women, we specially make the following explanations:

Threatened abortion is usually caused by low progesterone levels, so progesterone supplementation is needed! If the progesterone level of a pregnant woman is always low, then medication is needed to preserve the fetus until 3 months later, when the placenta stabilizes. In fact, while taking medication, pregnant women also need to stay in bed (try not to move around except for urination and defecation), strictly refrain from sexual intercourse, and should also maintain emotional stability, avoid a tense environment, supplement adequate nutrition, and take some vitamin E orally.

Children are the life of their mothers, so mothers need to have regular physical examinations so that doctors can always understand their physical conditions and propose treatment plans to help their children develop better.
