Suggest Alternate Tablet For Duphaston

What alternative to duphaston (dydergesterone?) is there. I was on it for almost 3 yrs until they stopped availability. I took 1 a day, did not stop my periods, but I found it fixed my depression. Now I am trying different antidepressants with no results yet.

Duphaston is a dydrogesterone and now banned in few places .
Allylestrenol more or less indicated for same purposes as duphastn , so in my opinion after consultation with your treating doctor , you can take this drug in place .
Good luck.
