Duphaston: Comprehensive Overview

Duphaston contains the active ingredient dydrogesterone, a progesterone agonist (female sex hormone) that helps reduce the risk of endometrial hyperplasia.

Uses:

• Irregular Menstrual Periods
• Dysmenorrhea (painful menstrual periods)
• Endometriosis
• Infertility

In combination with estrogen, Duphaston can treat secondary amenorrhea (absence of menstrual periods for 6 months or more) and heavy, irregular bleeding.

Precautions:

• Allergies: Avoid if allergic to dydrogesterone or similar medicines. Symptoms include skin rash, itchy skin, redness, swelling, or difficulty breathing.
• Deep Vein Thrombosis: Not recommended for patients with blood vessel blockages.
• Hormone-Dependent Cancers: Avoid if you have progesterone or estrogen-dependent cancers.
• Unknown Bleeding: Not recommended for patients with unexplained bleeding.
• Liver Impairment: May cause liver damage. Contact your doctor if you experience pain in the right upper abdomen, loss of appetite, dark urine, or jaundice.
• Depression: Not recommended for patients with depression.
• Porphyria: Avoid if you have porphyria.

Regular self-breast exams are recommended due to an increased risk of breast cancer when used with estrogen.

Pregnancy and Breastfeeding:

• Pregnancy: Should not be used unless recommended by your doctor.
• Breastfeeding: Avoid as it passes into breast milk.
