Hello dear,
I understand your concern.
In my opinion IVF c injection is helpful during pregnancy.

It is usually prescribed in cases of previous history of miscarriage or any suspicious of miscarriage in the present pregnancy or to improve the growth of the fetus if it is less etc.

IVFc injection is HCG hormone.

And HCG hormone is very essential in the maintainence of pregnancy.

SO HCG hormone aids in well growth of the fetus and prevents miscarriage.

So in case of any suspicion of above causes it is given.

So do not worry as your doctor might have prescribed it for some indication.

Avoid stress.
Take healthy nutritional diet.
Avoid intercourse in first trimester.
Take prenatals.

Hope this helps.
Best regards....Dr.Srilatha
