DUPHASTON (DYDRGESTERONE)

Duphaston Information

Duphaston (also generically known as Dydrgesterone) is a type of synthetic hormone, which is similar to one of the body’s main sex hormones (progesterone). Progesterone is the body hormone that plays an important part in the developing of the healthy endometrium (endometrium is absolutely essential in the occurrence of a pregnancy). This hormone produces a couple of times during a normal menstrual period. It also helps in the maintaining of the womb lining, (making it easier to avoid the risk of spontaneous abortion or of miscarriage) in the case of women who have had many miscarriages.
