Is Duphaston Safe To Use During A Pregnancy?

Hi, my wife is 7 weeks and 5 days pregnant with third child. Her doctor has prescribed Duphaston for 30 days (10 days already over). In 2001 she had missed abortion. Then my first child was born in 2002. My second child was born in 2008 after treatment as she was diagnosed with PCOS. Now we are expecting third child which was conceived without treatment as she reduced weight by herself (I assume this worked). Please let me know if it is safe to use Duphaston as I have read mixed response on the internet of the medicine use. Thanks.
