Hi,
Thanks for the query.
Miprogen 200 contains progesterone.
Progesterone hormone helps in maintenance of pregnancy.
Usually this is used in case of any previous miscarriage and if there is hormonal deficiency in present pregnancy.
But some doctors will put it as prophylactic measure in normal pregnancy also.
So if the baby condition is good and if there are no complications no need to worry.

Take care.
