Do duphaston cure or lessen polycystic ovary?

Dr. Jeff Livingston answered

Specializes in Obstetrics and Gynecology

Not at all : Progesterone can be used to help trigger menstrual cycles in people with pcos but it does not sure it or fix the underlying problem. If you are obese weight loss is the cure for pcos.

Dr Villaplana and another doctor agreed
