Is It Safe To Take Duphaston During Pregnancy?

hi i m 8 weeks pregnant. My gynac has advised me to take Duphaston tab (10mg) toll 4th month. Is it safe to have this tab till my 4th month. m not very sure about it as i have read that this tab helps in conceiving and as i have already conceived and in my last scan doc said all is fine, should i continue using this tab till my 4th month of pregnancy?

Hi
Thanks for posting on HCM
Duphaston is a synthetic progesterone widely indicated in many gynecological problems including progesterone insufficiency in the first trimester of pregnancy(luteal insuficiency) which may be responsible for pregnancy loss.If this be the case with you, the drug is quite safe and may help you keep pregnancy till your placenta take over hormone production by 3 to 4 months of pregnancy.Just take the drug as prescribed and do not hesitate to go closer to your Gynecologist if any problem while using the drug.
Hope this will help
Wish you good health
