Hi,
Thanks for the query.
Duphaston can help in inducing the withdrawal bleeding this time.
But to get regular periods in future you have to get investigated to find out the actual cause for irregularity.
You consult your gynecologist, get examined and go for ultrasound.
If she suggests go for thyroid profile once.
With this workup the possible cause for your problem can be identified and treated.
Take care.
