You have bleeding in spite of taking Duphaston . There are two possibilities,Consult your gynecologist for-
- You need more dose of hormone,
_ you should go for USG pelvis .. to exclude tubal pregnancy ( suggested by your pain on left side )
Till then - Take bed rest/ take one extra dose of Duphaston ( three times a day ) .. till you meet your doctor.
