Medical Overview
Duphaston is listed as Gynecology containing Dydrogesterone. A medicine used according to its active ingredient, dosage form, and the patient’s condition.
Duphaston (dydrogesterone) — the Levant’s beloved gentle progestogen: cycle regulation, endometriosis pain, threatened/recurrent miscarriage support and IVF luteal phase, without androgenic baggage and without blocking ovulation (it is NOT a contraceptive — a myth worth killing). Schedule fidelity IS the therapy; diagnose abnormal bleeding before medicating it; pregnancy stop-dates are doctor-set.
