Hi,

It is recommended to take folic acid (Befolvit) during early pregnancy. Hence, there is no problem in taking that. Regarding Duphaston, it is a hormonal medicine used in a variety of conditions. During pregnancy it is usually given to prevent miscarriage if there is any risk

Do you have any history of spontaneous pregnancy loss? Lower abdominal pain may be an early sign of abortion. I think your doctor did not want to take any risk as it is your first pregnancy. Hopefully it will be given for a short period and you can take it.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
