I am prescribed progynova 10mg twice a day and duphaston 10 mg thrice a day and 2 suppositories of cyclogest 400mg three times a day. Currently I am 5 weeks pregnant my embryo transfer was on 19th of December. I Don t remember if I took my doze of progynova and duphaston last night. Will that affect anything? Can I take the doze in which case if I have taken it it will double up. Plz advice I m nervous!

Hi, I have gone through your question. You need not worry as missing a single dose of progynova and duphastone will not cause any problem to the foetus.
Progynova is estrogen which is usually not required once the patient is pregnant. Duphastone is progesterone which is given to support the pregnancy. Missing one dose causes no harm as the blood levels of the drug is maintained.
I would suggest you to continue them as such and there is no need to double the dose for compensation.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Wishing you good health.
