Hi, I have gone through your question. Biopreg F contains folic acid which is given to decrease the chances of congenital anomalies in the foetus. It is given preconceptionally and throughout the first trimester.
Duphastone is progesterone which supports the pregnancy by making uterine environment more favourable for foetus. It is not harmful for either mother or foetus.
Gestin is allylestrenol which is a estrogen hormone given to support the pregnancy.
It has more role in in vitro fertilization conception, but can be given in naturally conceived pregnancy also.
I would suggest you to follow your doctor's advice.
Hope you found the answer helpful.
Wishing you good health.
