I've had my period twice in the span of 15 days. Honestly, I haven't done anything different with my diet or daily routine. I've been on some meds for about a month and a half now, though. Back in October, I was expecting my period around the 28th, but it showed up on the 18th. And now it's here again on November 3rd. The medications I'm currently taking include Indocap, Pantocid, Defcort, and Chekbak D3. Why might my period be so early, and what should I do about it?

The early period could be due to the medications you are taking. Indocap is a brand name for Indomethacin, which can sometimes affect menstrual cycles. Pantocid is a brand name for Pantoprazole, which may also have an impact on menstrual regularity. Defcort is a brand name for Deflazacort, which can sometimes cause hormonal changes leading to irregular periods. Chekbak D3 is a supplement containing Vitamin D3, which is not known to directly affect menstrual cycles. I recommend consulting with your healthcare provider to discuss the possibility of these medications affecting your menstrual cycle. They may suggest adjusting the dosage or switching to alternative medications if necessary.

View allI'm dealing with PCOS, and I was given an HCG shot of 10,000 UI along with Duphaston. My pregnancy test came back negative, and now my doctor has prescribed Ovral G for 20 days starting from the second day of my period. I'm wondering why I've been given Ovral G, and why it's important to take it at the same time every day. Could you help me understand this better?

We recently visited the doctor because my wife is pregnant. Two months ago, she had a miscarriage, and the doctor recommended Duphaston. I'm wondering if it's okay for her to take Jigest 10mg as a substitute for Duphaston 10mg. Is it safe for us to make this switch? Would love your advice on this.
Jigest 10mg Tablet and Duphaston 10mg Tablet are not exactly the same, although they are used for similar purposes. _Key Differences_ 1. _Active Ingredient_: Duphaston contains Dydrogesterone, while Jigest contains Micronized Progesterone. 2. _Hormonal Action_: Both medications are progestins, but they have slightly different hormonal actions and effects on the body. _Substitution Safety_ While Jigest can be used as a substitute for Duphaston in some cases, it's essential to consult your doctor before making any changes to your wife's medication regimen.
