I'm 12 weeks pregnant now as my progesterone levels are low my doctor prescribed Susten gel to use twice a day and I'm using susten gel from 6th week of pregnancy and suggested to continue till 34th week of pregnancy. Is it necessary to use till 34th week of pregnancy? Is there any alternative? when can I stop using it?
