Hi,
The use of Duphaston may not increase the size of fibroids. Few studies have shown that there is no substantial difference found between drug users and non-drug users.
It also helps in few patients with dysfunctional uterine bleeding and there is no need to worry about this.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
