Doc started me on duphaston this cycle and now im feeling sore breasts and little nausea. Im so confused matlab is it the medicine or am I actually pregnant? Anyone else got mixed up like this?
Yes, Duphaston definitely causes identical symptoms because of the progesterone boost. But for your safety, always discuss these symptoms and side effects with your gynac. They can guide you best on when to take a pregnancy test to get a clear answer.
Oh absolutely, Duphaston is basically progesterone, so it mimics almost all early pregnancy symptoms like breast tenderness, fatigue, and bloating. Don't stress too much about these symptoms and just wait for your test date to know for sure. Sending you positive vibes, dear!
Oh god, yes! I was on Duphaston and I felt so nauseous and bloated that I was 100% sure I was pregnant, but then I read it's just the hormone side effects and panicked. It is so hard not to overanalyze every single twinge. Just try to keep busy and take deep breaths, I am praying for you.
Yes, it really does. My doctor explained that Duphaston contains dydrogesterone, which is a synthetic form of progesterone. Because it increases progesterone levels in your body, it naturally causes side effects like nausea, mood swings, and bloating, which are identical to early pregnancy. So only a blood or urine test can confirm the actual pregnancy.
Listen to me, don't let these symptoms play tricks with your mind. Duphaston is given to support pregnancy, but because it is a hormone, it will definitely make your breasts feel heavy and make you feel sleepy. Just stay calm, rest well, and let your body do its work.
