Hi..
Welcome to HCM..
Usually progestogens and beta HCG injections are given in the first trimester and can be continued upto 5th month..
This helps to prevent any miscarriage during early pregnancy.
When the placenta is well developed and is able to produce enough progesterone to sustain the pregnancy and fetak development the injections can be stopped..
Your gynecologist may decide depending on the ultrasound and some blood investigations as to how long to continue the injections..
Avoid any strenuous activity..
Hope this information is helpful to you...
Take care..

Regards..
