Hello,
Welcome to HCM,
Dupbaston tablet is Dydrogesterone, which is used to treat irregular menstrual menstrual cycles and irregular duration of menstrual periods due to Progesterone hormone deficiency. You should not get worried for delay in menstrual period, as treatment requires repeatition for several cycles to make it regular. You should wait at least for a week. And if it does not occur, contact your Gynaecologist for further investigation.
Wish you good health,

Hi,
Duphastone tablets are supposed to take for last 14 days of cycle. Then once you stop the medication you will get period in 5-6 days time.
As it is hormonal problem; response varies individually , 2-3 days difference may occur. But you will get your period as bleeding is not physiological menstrual cycle but it is withdrawal bleeding.

If you still dont get periods, you are supposed to consult gynecologist for thorough screening.
Take care.

Best regards,
Dr. Neelam.
