Duphaston in second pregnancy
Hi,
My wife is 6 weeks pregnant, it's her second pregnancy.
However she has been advised to take duphaston (BD) for 15 days.
she doesn't have any other complications as of now except HB - 11.7 and TSH - 3.2 for which thyroxine. 25 mg has been prescribed.
After researching for the duphaston i am confused whether to continue or not with the medication, since I heard that certain types of birth defects can be caused by the usage of duphaston.
Please clarify and guide.
