Is It Safe To Take Duphaston 10mg Before Hysterectomy Surgery?
Hi, i have to undergo a hysterectomy first week of November. The hospital adviced me to take Duphaston 10mg daily for 21 days to stop periods this month which is due on 26th. Is it safe to have them before surgery. Thank you. Sherry Thomas YYYY@YYYY

Hello,
Yes. These treatments can also shrink fibroids, but they can't make them disappear completely. The goal is often to shrink the fibroids before a surgical procedure.
It is usually taken as one to two tablets per day for up to three months before hysterectomy or myomectomy for uterine fibroids.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
