Can Gestin And Duphaston Be Taken At The Same Time?

Dear Doctor, My Wife is 34 years old and we are trying for our secong child since last 3 years without success after the first child. We are seeking help from a fertility specialist and my wife underwent IUI for the second time. Doctor prescribed her 5mg Gestin twice a day as well as duphaston after the procedure today for the next 10 days. Can both Gestin and Duphaston taken at the same time? Are their purpose same? I am confused and need a second opinion. Please Help.

WELCOME TO HCM

BOTH MEDICINES HAVE PROGESTRONE WHICH IS USED TO PREVENT MISCARRIAGE AND TO GIVE LUTEAL PHASE SUPPORT.

TAKING ANY ONE OF THE DRUG IS SUFFICIENT TO PREVENT COMPLICATIONS.

YOU CAN TAKE DUPHASTONE WHICH CONTAIN NATURAL PROGESTRONE.
