Is It Safe To Use Duphaston For Spotting During Pregnancy?
Hi, i am 12 weeks pregnant now and yesterday i went for NT scan which shows everything is good but i had a very little spotting , may be a drop in the morning before the scan. I told my Gynecologist and she prescribed Duphaston 20mg twice a day. i am worried if it is safe to use or not.

Hi and thank you so much for this query.
I am so sorry to hear about spotting that you have witnessed during pregnancy. Duphaston contains progesterone. This is a regular hormone during pregnancy and it is very very safe to be used. Besides, it is already present in the system even without you taking it. It relaxes the uterus and helps keep the pregnancy in place preventing miscarriages.
Be relaxed. It is very safe.
I hope you find this helpful. Thank you for using our services and please feel free to ask for more information if need be. I wish you the best of health. Dr. Ivo, MD.
