Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
Duphaston is synthetic progesterone. It is administered in conditions in which there is decreased secretion of endogenous progesterone.
It might have been administered as a preventive measure to avoid certain complications associated with pregnancy.
Kindly take the medication as advised and do the necessary follow-up.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
