What Causes Dry Mouth After Taking Duphaston?

Hi Doctor, I am 29 years old, I am trying to get pregnant and have a PCOS. I took some hormonal injections in order to increase my ova to become to normal size. I got only one within normal range is 18 and my doctor gave me HCG injection.Since 10 days and till now I have been taking taking duphaston. Yesterday and today I started feeling dryness in my mouth. Please can you tell me what this means? Am I pregnant or sick? Can you help please. Many thanks

Hallow Dear,

So long as you are taking Duphaston pills, you will not get menses as these are progesterone pills. If it is 10 days after the last unprotected intercourse after the injection of hCG; please get Beta hCG test done. Values above 25 mIU/ml are diagnostic of pregnancy. Your follicle size of 18 mm was an ideal size for healthy egg. So pregnancy possibility is very high. If the test indicates that you are pregnant, you may continue Duphaston further with the advice of your Gynaecologist. In non-pregnant state, the levels are under 5 mIU/ml. If the levels indicate that you are not pregnant, you may discontinue Duphaston and you will get withdrawal bleeding within 4-7 days.

Do not go on the symptoms like dry mouth. Morning sickness starts appearing about a week after the missed period.

I hope this resolves your dilemma.
