TCM + Western Gynae/medicine

Hi mummies, this is my 1st pregnancy and currently I am 6 weeks pregnant. Did my first ultrasound today and had a consultation with my gynae. Before that I consulted with my TCM doctor and she prescribed me the powder for my early pregnancy. My gynae prescribed me Duphaston due to my MC histories. When I asked whether safe to consume both TCM and western medicine, she didn’t give me 100% yes about my TCM. Just wondering, is there any of you who consume both TCM and western medicine? Thank you so much.

check with your TCM physician whether it’s safe to consume Chinese and western medicine together. TCM physicians generally are aware of western medication and their effects/uses. Some gynaes do not believe in TCM at all so they will not outrightly advise you ok or not ok.
