With multiple Uterine fibroids in pregnancy, severe lower abdominal pain for a week can be due to fibroid-related degeneration (red degeneration) or pressure effects rather than a problem with Duphaston 10 mg, which is usually continued for hormonal support. Manage with rest, hydration, and a safe analgesic like Paracetamol, but avoid self-medicating beyond this. Since pain is significant and persistent, you should get a prompt obstetric review and repeat ultrasound to rule out complications and ensure fetal well-being.

🩺 Possible Causes of Lower Abdominal Discomfort in Pregnancy

Uterine fibroids can cause pain or pressure as they grow or affect uterine stretching.
Normal pregnancy changes such as ligament stretching often cause discomfort.
Less likely but important: infection, placental abruption, or preterm labor need exclusion given severe, persistent pain.

💊 Purpose and Dosage of Duphaston (Dydrogesterone 10 mg)

Duphaston is used to support the pregnancy by maintaining the uterine lining and may help reduce risk of miscarriage or fibroid-related complications.
The dose is individualized by your doctor; typically, 10 mg two to three times daily is common for such indications during pregnancy, but follow your prescribing physician’s guidance closely.

🩺 Summary of Medical History

You have three uterine fibroids: a large one at the posterior wall utero-cervical junction measuring about 85.7 x 68.9 mm, and two smaller ones at the posterior fundal right lateral wall (about 30.9 x 25.3 mm).
Your routine sonography, blood tests, and urine reports are normal, which is reassuring at this stage.

It is important you discuss this abdominal pain urgently with your obstetrician to rule out any serious issues and to ensure the fibroids and pregnancy are monitored properly.
