“…The results showed significantly better therapeutic effects in OG treated with combined medicine, with statistically shorter abdominal pain relief time and hemostasis time compared with CG. Past studies have also confirmed that TCM combined with dydrogesterone tablets is highly effective in early threatened abortion treatment, which can quickly and effectively stop bleeding, improve clinical symptoms, and increase the levels of progesterone and β -hCG in the body [ 18 ], consistent with our observation. Zishen Yutai pill is a famous prescription for the prevention and treatment of threatened abortion.…”
