Hi i start duohaston on day 14 (as my progestorone level is very low) of my cycle, and while starting it yesterday i got some spotting and still have till today. I had intercourse today cause im trying to get pregnant, is that a problem? And what about the spotting? Can i still get pregnant?
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice. Duphaston is indicated in women trying to conceive if there is proven, documented deficiency of the progesterone hormone (during luteal phase) the last 10 days of cycle. Once conception has taken place, progesterone hormone is indicated only in pregnancies due to assisted reproductive techniques such as IVF etc. or in cases of habitual abortion . You may be pregnant and it will help keep the pregnancy . Hope I have answered the question. Let me know if i can assist you further.
