My wife is now in 8 weeks of pregnancy, and for the last 2 days, she has observed some light spotting. So, eventually she went for the doctor. According to the doc, she said the fetus is not so "stable" as usual.

My wife is now prescribed with "Duphaston", which is a kind of hormone replacement therapy. Twice a day for 10 days.

Therefore, I wonder if anyone of you have actually had
1. This spotting during pregnancy, and what is the consequences of the spotting?
2. Duphaston during pregnancy, and will it cause any side-effect to the fetus or baby

Cheers!!

It's good to hear from you all.

Yes, my wife actually has enough rest. She sleep more than usual. Vomit, no appetite, headache, sore breast with other pregnancy symptoms.

But, just wonder if you or your wife also took the same medicine as well. I found out that this medicine is banned across US due to some reasons.

Anyhow, hopefully everything goes well!!!

Duphaston is quite widely use by Malaysians gynae to 'stabilise' a featus.

I also have spotting during 6-7 weeks of pregnancy and was on duphaston too.

In other words, can I assume it is safe and no side-effect seen so far for this prescription?
