Doctor: Hi, if you have pcod problem with irregular periods, then I think you should take some medicines like clomiphene for the growth of your follicles. Track your follicles growth by repeated ultrasound.  When follicles reach a size more than 17 mm, take injection for rupturing the follicles.  Be in contact with your husband for next 2 to 3 days.  Take progesterone for next 2 weeks. Do a urine pregnancy test after that. So, the duphaston which you have been told to take is the progesterone.  It helps in supporting the pregnancy.But alone it will not help. Hope I have answered your question.  If you have any other query I will be happy to help.Regards Dr khushboo
