Hi & Welcome.
I can understand your concern regarding the safety of Duphastan during pregnancy.

Yes, this medication is advisable and safe during pregnancy.

Duphastan contains Progesterone hormone which is given to make the uterine environment more favorable for the fetus as it supports the pregnancy. It can be taken as a precautionary measure to avoid any bleeding.

It is completely safe for the fetus and the mother when taken in pregnancy.
There will be no effect on the fetal growth. There is nothing to worry.

Therefore, you can take this as per your doctor's recommendation.

A feedback is appreciated.
