iOS 11 uploading duplicates

After uograding to iOS11 all photos are being uploaded again. Since Dropbox uploads and stores duplicates ‘by (lack of proper) design’ this is a problem.

I have an iphone 7 and when I connect to dropbox, it's uploading my photos multiple times. I now have 5 and 6 copies of MANY photos.

Any help is appreciated.
