Q: Stopping progesterone

I stopped progesterone today (11 weeks, 1 day) and I'm really nervous. I was on until 12 weeks with DS, but this time they told me to stop earlier. Will I know if something goes wrong? Anyone been in a similar situation?

Make sure they check your progesterone levels before stopping it may help sooth your worries. My doc kept me on it till i was 14 weeks.. I got back on 7th to make sure everything is ok but try not to worry to much. Doctors know what their doing most times. Call and ask them to test levels first

I stopped right before I made 12 weeks. I stopped because my insurance was not covering it anymore. Doctor said it was fine cause my levels were up anyways. If they feel you need to go back on it, they will let you know. Do not stress about it.

I have my appt on Monday so I'll update you to let you know how it went. My RE initially said 10 weeks, but then somehow I got her to agree to 11 since it made me more comfortable.

My OB said stop at 12 weeks but my RE clinic said stop at 10....So I split the difference and decided to stop at 11 W 2 D and had zero issues. Was so great to stop that mess.
