Hi,
Welcome to Healthcare Magic Forum.
I have gone through your Query & I really appreciate your concern about the problem you are facing.

As a physician I would like to tell you that the drug is progesterone which is responsible for healthy growth of Uterine lining in females which is necessary to preserve and mature the pregnancy further.

There are several side effects including skin related side effects like acne, pruritus, Skin rash, skin discoloration, seborrhea, verruca, and wound debridement during therapy of this drug so I suggest that you should consult with the prescribing physician to either adjust the dose or change the brand with which you are experiencing the side effects.

Thanks for Trusting & Posting your Query on this forum.
Hope this will help you. Feel free to ask any further question.
Have a nice Day.

Regards,
Dr.Abhijeet
