I was so happy but so nervous to stop each time! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-stop-progestrone-support#post-1626657 Sat, 10 May 2014 16:44:27 +0000 mrs. 64 1626657@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My doctor wanted me to take it until 12w, but I ran out at 11w2d and couldn't get more. I was reallly nervous to go off but thankfully everything was fine. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-stop-progestrone-support#post-1626618 Sat, 10 May 2014 15:58:27 +0000 Mrs.Someone 1626618@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I started this same thread in early pregnancy :) Here's the link:<br /> <a href="http://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-week-did-you-stop-using-progesterone" rel="nofollow">http://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-week-did-you-stop-using-progesterone</a></p> <p>Because of the consensus, I stopped at 12w. My OB didn't have much of an opinion on it, and my ND said 10 weeks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-stop-progestrone-support#post-1626606 Sat, 10 May 2014 15:51:01 +0000 wheres_c 1626606@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was told to stop at 12 weeks, but continued until 14 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-stop-progestrone-support#post-1626451 Sat, 10 May 2014 12:46:36 +0000 Jenn23 1626451@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I stayed on until 11 weeks or so, when my RE released me to see my OB. I was on the injections for the first 7 weeks, then the Crinone for another month. I think it is my RE's IVF protocol to stay on for most of the 1st trimester. Big milestone when you get to stop the progesterone! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-stop-progestrone-support#post-1626440 Sat, 10 May 2014 12:30:25 +0000 FaithFertility 1626440@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@twodoghouse: awwww thank you, I am excited! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-stop-progestrone-support#post-1626437 Sat, 10 May 2014 12:28:31 +0000 twodoghouse 1626437@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@FaithFertility: I totally understand! :) I'm just so glad that you're to the point in your preg where you can stop the progesterone! It felt like such an awesome milestone when I got there! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-stop-progestrone-support#post-1626399 Sat, 10 May 2014 11:40:44 +0000 Torchwood 1626399@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was on oral progesterone, and I stopped around 12 weeks. I think it was actually 13 because I just used it up rather than trying to figure out a day. I was nervous, even though I knew it would be fine. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-stop-progestrone-support#post-1626318 Sat, 10 May 2014 10:31:22 +0000 CatchAFallingStar 1626318@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@FaithFertility: I'm taking a vaginal 100mg capsule 3x per day.

They told me at my 8w viability appt that it was ok to discontinue, but I had two weeks left of pills so they gave me the ok to finish the script. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-stop-progestrone-support#post-1626112 Sat, 10 May 2014 07:26:42 +0000 FaithFertility 1626112@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@twodoghouse: Yes, I agree!!!!!!! ;) I feel like I can't put anymore in ... sorry TMI ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-stop-progestrone-support#post-1626106 Sat, 10 May 2014 07:25:06 +0000 FaithFertility 1626106@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@SweetiePie: Thanks, this babe was concieved with no meds or IUI, big shock!!!!!! I was really only put on it as a caution my l<br /> Progestrone levels went from 22 my first beta to 18 he was not concerned, but I had it left from previous IUI cycles so he said just start.... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-stop-progestrone-support#post-1626100 Sat, 10 May 2014 07:21:57 +0000 twodoghouse 1626100@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had PIO and vag suppositories until 12 weeks (with twins). If I had been pregnant with a singleton, my RE would have taken me off at 10 weeks though. I know how scary it was to quit! But it was also so nice to be done with shots and mess of suppositories! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-stop-progestrone-support#post-1626086 Sat, 10 May 2014 07:12:17 +0000 SweetiePie 1626086@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I was on PIO and Crinone until 7 weeks and they continued me on the Crinone supps until about 12 weeks. But to be fair, my RE simply said the last time I saw him "keep taking the Crinone until your OB tells you to stop". I saw my OB at 12 weeks and she said "you don't have to keep taking these, you probably could have stopped around 10 weeks".<br /> I'm still glad I kept taking them till 12 weeks but I'm sure it would've been fine had I stopped.<br /> I was also IVF, so that might be a different story than IUI? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-stop-progestrone-support#post-1626080 Sat, 10 May 2014 07:06:42 +0000 FaithFertility 1626080@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@TheReelDeal: I have about 12 applicators left, so it will take me to about 10 1/2 I'd be comfortable doing 1 every other day and go slowly off it........ </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-stop-progestrone-support#post-1626060 Sat, 10 May 2014 06:43:32 +0000 swedishfish 1626060@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I finished my prescription at maybe...10-11 weeks. No one checked my progesterone levels after stopping. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-stop-progestrone-support#post-1626059 Sat, 10 May 2014 06:43:25 +0000 TheReelDeal 1626059@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If you're not ready, you can continue taking it until week 12 when the placenta is fully formed and has taken over. Go with what feels right to you! :heart: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-stop-progestrone-support#post-1626045 Sat, 10 May 2014 06:23:40 +0000 FaithFertility 1626045@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am 8w4d currently on Crinone 8% gel once a day, I was put on I t as pretty much a precaution, my progestrone dropped slightly after my first Beta, that was a month ago, since then all is going great saw HB and baby bean! RE stated I will probably stop after my next apt 5/13 I'll be one day shy of 9weeks.......<br /> Truth be told I'm scared to stop!!!!!<br /> When did you stop, was it cold Turkey, did they check your levels, I :heart: my RE and will tell him my fear on Tuesday, but just wanted to see others! </p>
