H,

Yes, they are safe during early pregnancy. Both Proluton and Utrogestan contain female hormone progesterone and are prescribed to support and maintain an early pregnancy associated with suspected low progesterone levels. The are also used to to lower the risk of abortions or premature birth. There is nothing to worry as they are considered to be safe during pregnancy hence take them as prescribed by your doctor.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
