My sister has two large fibroids in her uterus and doctors have recommended laparoscopy surgery, saying it might be a critical case. We're looking for the best laparoscopy surgeon but we're from Chhattisgarh, so traveling just for consultation is tough. Can you help with an estimated cost and suggest good options?

I'm feeling a bit anxious because I was on Duphaston 10mg once a day from the 15th to the 28th day of my cycle. After that, I did a pregnancy test, and it came back negative. I even got a Beta HCG test on the 28th day, which was also negative, and another urine pregnancy test on the 32nd day, and it was negative again. Normally, my cycle is pretty regular at 27-28 days. So now Im wondering, how many days after stopping Duphaston should I expect my period to start?

After stopping Duphaston, you can expect your periods to resume within 3-7 days, as Duphaston is a progesterone medication that regulates menstrual cycles, and its withdrawal typically triggers menstruation; given your regular 27-28 day cycle, you may experience your period around 3-5 days after stopping Duphaston, but this can vary from person to person.
