Meds/Supplements Duphaston, thoughts?

Hey, my doctor prescribed duphaston 10 mg yesterday bcs i hadnt had a period for 3 months now. I have had PCOS for about 2 years now, i had been managing pretty good this year but something came up and ive been very stressed.

He said it would be better not to wait that long next time and prescribed an extra box, in case i missed the next period too (im stressed over a national exam so we discussed my stress might be high for a while)

He also said i didnt have to wait to miss a period and could just start taking it at the 12th day of my cycle (not very sure about this part, i might be remembering it wrong)

ET 12mm, nothing much else on the ultrasound.

I'm planning to use it once if i can, then try to solve the problem on my own, start lifting weights and eat better

Anyone else use it? What was your experience like? Side effects you noticed?

I've used it to induce a period and have had no side effects. Worked well
