Question About Duphaston

Hi, can I ask what medicine does doctor provide usually during the first trimester? Doctor prescribed duphaston even when I do not have any spotting issues but read about the many side effects. Hence unsure if I should take it. First gynae I visited gave me folic acid and vitamin D to be taken daily. Second gynae suggested to take folic acid daily but vitamin D to once a week and prescribe additional duphaston. #1stimemom #advicepls

I was given Duphaston since 11dpo. (Found out I was pregnant at 9dpo). Although I do not have any bleeding etc and this is my first pregnancy. Gynae said this is western “an tai Yao”. So it’s perfectly fine. I’m given duphaston (twice a day), calcium, DHA, multivitamin (twice a day) and folic acid (twice a day, 400mg each) So don’t worry!
