Hi Thank you for asking HCM I have gone through your query. Duphastone is a progesterone which can delay getting periods. You can take twice or thrice daily. If taking twice take in12 hour intervals. Avoid missing pills. When you stop taking this you can get a period within next 3 days. You can delay like this for around 2 weeks. Thanks.
