new natural progesterones are available now,away from such side effects,which can be taken without any fear.so go for them instead of this.

Hi dear,
the ultrasound report corresponds to the desired growth.
The reletion between duphaston and birth defect may be co incidental. It is a safe and effective drug during pregnancy.
YOu can continue taking the drug. Still, if you have any doubt, you can consult your doctor and change to other medicine
Good luck
