Is Taking Duphaston After Follicle Being 19mm Increase The Chances Of Pregnancy?

Hello doctor, I took clomid from cd 2-6 and my follicle was 19mm on cd16. I was given a trigger shot on cd16 evening and was asked to take Duphaston twice a day for 14 days starting cd17. Since I might have not ovulated yet, will taking Duphaston is ok. Can I still have the chances of getting pregnant?

Hello dear
I understand your concern
You have 19 mm follicle size on 16th day.
You took HCG shot to induce ovulation.
After taking HCG shot of you had sex then high chance of pregnancy.
I would suggest to again go for USG scan to confirm about ovulation.
If ovulation has not been occur then duphaston does not increase chance of pregnancy.
But it correct luteal phase abnormality and regularize period
To induce ovulation, you can also use metformin to induce period
Avoid stress, take healthy diet, drink plenty of diet, do regular exercise and maintain weight according to BMI
Hope this may help you

Contact further if follow up needed
Best regards
Dr. Sagar
