Hi. My uterine wall thickness is 3.8 mm and my doctor advised me to take duphaston 10 mg twice daily to help my conception and reduce risk of miscarriage. I also have benign fibroids in my breast. I read that this tablet increases risk of breast cancer. Is it safe for me to consume duphaston? Please advice.
