The medicines you’ve taken have helped
you to get pregnant and won't harm the
embryo. You may continue taking metformin
and cyclogest (progesterone derivatives)
to prevent miscarriage. Women with
poly-cystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) beside
sterility, also have an increased risk for
miscarriage. An evaluation of the early
pregnancy can be done by measuring the
level of human chorion-gonadotropin (HCG)
in your body. HCG-levels should double
once every 2 days. Regular
ultrasound-scans are also necessary for
monitoring the health of your child.
You can consult your obstetrician for an
expert opinion and follow up.
