Hi
Dr. Purushottam welcomes you to HCM virtual clinic.
I have gone through your query.
I think I have understood your concern, I will try to suggest you the best possible treatment options.

1) First of all do not panic.
2)Please try to understand that Duphaston is a progesterone hormone tablet. It is used to induce the periods in your case.
3) After a course of 5 to 7 days of such tablets , menses usually start within 3 to 10 days.
As you have already started your periods, you need not take Duphaston now.
4) If you have irregular cycles, then you can take Tablet Regestrone 5 mg twice a day for 5 days, from day 21 to 25 of every menstrual cycle.This will help you to regulate your periods.

I hope my answer helps you.
Thanks.
Wish you good health.
With regards
Dr Purushottam Neurgaonkar
