Hello
Thanks for posting your query at DoctorSpring.com
There are no studies regarding the role of DIM supplements and Propolis during pregnancy .
There is also no data to show that it is deleterious to the baby, and that a termination is warranted.
Yes, please continue the pregnancy without any apprehensions.
Take daily 5 mg folic acid .
Do not take any more supplements / medications without consulting your doctor first.
All the best
Please feel free to discuss further.
Have an ultrasound scan done to document the well being of the baby so far.
Wish you luck with this pregnancy !
