I was given duphaston to take after ovulation in case fertilization occurred to sustain the pregnancy. Just forgot to ask if the test comes out negative and I stop taking the drug, menstruation will really be delayed by 2 weeks as it is written on the internet?

For aml @Lema:
Delaying menstruation can be one of the side effects of taking Duphaston. This drug, which is a synthetic form of progesterone, affects the menstrual cycle and can cause menstrual disorders, including delayed or absent menstruation.
However, it should be remembered that delayed menstruation can also have other causes, such as stress, weight changes, hormonal disorders or pregnancy. Therefore, if menstruation is delayed for more than 14 days, it is recommended to take a pregnancy test to rule out pregnancy.
If the pregnancy test is negative and the delay in menstruation persists, you should consult your gynecologist. If you have doubts about this situation, it is always worth consulting a doctor who can provide more personalized advice. If you are not able to make a face-to-face visit, I attach a link to the online teleconsultation:

Hello I took duphaston from the 16th day of the cycle to the 25th day, and I take it often since I have a cyst on the left ovary, but this time for the first time I have a delay of 14 days for the moment and still it's the absence of my period. Is this one of the side effects of duphaston?
Thank you

If the pregnancy test is negative, it means that fertilization has not occurred. In this case, discontinuation of Duphastonu should not result in pregnancy-related delay of menstruation. The delay of menstruation after discontinuation of Duphastonu may be related to the regulation of the body's hormonal cycle, but it does not necessarily have to be exactly 2 weeks. According to the summary of product characteristics, menstruation should appear within two weeks after taking the last tablet.
The GdziePoLek.pl service also allows you to book a medicine in a selected stationary pharmacy and collect it upon presentation of a prescription:
