I'm 6 weeks pregnant and this is my first pregnancy with no miscarriages or other issues so far. My doctor prescribed me Duphaston from the first day until now. Is it really necessary to take it, and what exactly is it for?

Duphaston is a brand name for dydrogesterone, which is a synthetic hormone similar to progesterone. It is commonly prescribed during early pregnancy to support the uterine lining and reduce the risk of miscarriage. It is often recommended for women with a history of recurrent miscarriages or certain hormonal imbalances. In your case, since you have no history of miscarriage or other problems, the use of Duphaston may be a precautionary measure to support a healthy pregnancy.

I experienced a mild pain during sex with my boyfriend two nights ago and initially thought it was just due to deep penetration. However, right after, I started feeling this severe, sharp pain in my lower abdomen and rectum so intense I could barely stand or walk. I've been having a hard time peeing and passing gas, felt extremely bloated, even vomited, and also had the urge to poop. Could this be something serious or is it a normal reaction? What should I do?

I've just had a follicular study on day 14 of my cycle, and it showed I have a mature follicle in my right ovary that's 21x23 and another on the left side that's 23x24, so it seems like two eggs might rupture. I'm wondering if this increases my chances of having twins? Also, I've been experiencing some lower stomach pain on the left side and I'm a bit concerned about it. Can you help clarify things for me? I'm feeling a bit confused about what's going on.
