Duphaston

Overview

Duphaston 10mg is used to support progesterone balance in women, particularly in cases of irregular menstruation, endometriosis, abnormal uterine bleeding, or PMS. It may also be used in hormonal support for fertility-related protocols, under medical supervision.

Doctor’s Review (General Observation)

Dr. Ayesha Rauf, Gynecologist (Lahore), notes that Duphaston is often prescribed where progesterone support is needed and is usually well tolerated. However, she stresses that dosage and timing should be supervised to prevent hormonal imbalance. This is a general observation, not a treatment recommendation.
