Should Duphaston Be Taken After The Tentative Days Of Ovulation?

My doctor advised me to take 1 tablet+day of Duphaston to compensate for low progesterone in the second phase of the cycle. The recommendation was to take it 16-25 days of the cycle. However, my cycle varies and the ovulation takes place typically 19-22 day (I monitor it with Clearblue tests), cycle being 30-33 days. QUESTION: should I take Duphaston AFTER the ovulation happened? I have read in several places that it can inhibit ovulation.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.

I have reviewed your query and here is my advice. I understand your concern. You have 30 to 33 days cycle. So your ovulation will occur at around 15th to 17th day.
It will help to regularize period by correcting hormonal imbalance.
Better to undergo USG scan/ovarian follicle study to confirm ovulation.
So use after confirming ovulation has occured.
Avoid stress, take healthy diet, drink plenty of water and do regular exercise.

Hope this may help you. Contact further if follow up needed.

Best regards,
Dr. Dholariya Sagar Jayantilal
