Overview
Duphaston 10mg Tablet contains dydrogesterone 10mg, an oral progestogen used to treat conditions caused by insufficient natural progesterone, including irregular menstrual cycles, secondary amenorrhoea, endometriosis, and threatened or recurrent miscarriage where luteal phase support is needed.
Dydrogesterone works by supplementing the body’s progesterone activity. It helps to stabilise the lining of the womb (endometrium), regulate the menstrual cycle, and support the early phase of pregnancy when progesterone levels may otherwise be inadequate.
How it Works
Dydrogesterone binds to progesterone receptors in the womb lining and reproductive tissues, mimicking the effects of the body’s own progesterone. This helps stabilise the endometrium, support a regular menstrual cycle, and maintain the uterine environment needed in early pregnancy.
Directions for Use
Take Duphaston 10mg Tablet at the same time(s) each day as instructed by your doctor, with or without food. Swallow the tablet whole with a glass of water. Do not adjust the dose or timing yourself, as the regimen is specifically tailored to your cycle or pregnancy stage.
Dosage
Duphaston 10mg Tablet is taken exactly as prescribed for the specific gynaecological indication and cycle-timing regimen your doctor has set for you – dosing schedules differ significantly depending on whether it is used for irregular cycles, endometriosis, or pregnancy support, so always follow your doctor’s individual instructions rather than a generic schedule.
