I would stop taking my supplements around 12dpo and test on that day too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-will-i-know-when-to-stop-progesterone#post-1985469 Mon, 15 Dec 2014 15:53:29 +0000 Snowdrop 1985469@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was told to test at 14dpo then stop, if I didn't start AF by 18 dpo I was to test again just in case. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-will-i-know-when-to-stop-progesterone#post-1985364 Mon, 15 Dec 2014 14:49:33 +0000 MaryM 1985364@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would check, but I've been on progesterone for 12 days once ovulation has been confirmed (so 3 dpo until 14)</p> <p>One month AF didn't show up until I stopped, last month it started while I was still on it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-will-i-know-when-to-stop-progesterone#post-1985357 Mon, 15 Dec 2014 14:46:02 +0000 LindsayInNY 1985357@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I never got AF while taking progesterone (or Crinone), I always had to stop. I would call and ask, if they're not bringing you back in to test. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-will-i-know-when-to-stop-progesterone#post-1985354 Mon, 15 Dec 2014 14:44:22 +0000 Shutterbug 1985354@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had a blood HCG test on 14dpo, so I think if you tested negative then (assuming you were sure about when you ovulated) then you could stop after that. However, I also got AF while on Crinone twice during my IVF cycles. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-will-i-know-when-to-stop-progesterone#post-1985345 Mon, 15 Dec 2014 14:41:27 +0000 travellingbee 1985345@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Banana330: Oh really? I didn't realize you'd still get AF. OK I will call them and see what they say. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-will-i-know-when-to-stop-progesterone#post-1985335 Mon, 15 Dec 2014 14:36:00 +0000 Banana330 1985335@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@travellingbee: I was on prometrium but was told to test @ 14 dpo if :bfn: stop, if :bfp: stay on until 12 weeks. I'd call can ask to be sure... but AF would start even while on them, although i have heard of it being delayed a day or two for some people. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-will-i-know-when-to-stop-progesterone#post-1985319 Mon, 15 Dec 2014 14:28:14 +0000 travellingbee 1985319@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am on Crinone 8% suppositories but was given no instructions other than, keep using if I get pregnant. But what if I don't? I assume I won't get my AF like normal if I just continue them, so do I just test when my AF would normally come and if it is :bfn: , I stop using it? </p>
