Scared to stop progesterone!

I dont know whats wrong with me but today I am 6w3d and heard the babies HB which was amazing...They told me I could slowly stop the injections over the next 3 days but now Im scared!

I have hated doing them so much every night but a wave of panic came over me when they told me it was okay to stop...Im just nervous its too early still!

Re: Scared to stop progesterone!

They told you to stop because they feel your body is doing it's job by producing progesterone naturally!!

If you're really unsure and questioning it because they didn't take blood, you can always call your doctor to double check! Chat Icon
That would probably make me nervous too if they didn't do b/w, but then again I don't have experience with IVF.

Re: Scared to stop progesterone!

was kinda nervous when i was told to stop it even thought it was something I was looking forward to after getting stuck for about 13 weeks.
The doc was right though.. that the shot was doing was like "a spit in the wind" as compared to what my body was producing on its own.
I would def talk to ur doc is ur still uneasy about stopping them so that maybe they can explain it better

PS. Don't get nervous I was only on it for so long due to the type of egg release i did ( apparently it completely depletes ur body or estrogen and progesterone so it takes longer to supplement.

im surprised they would tell you to stop so early, but if they did, im sure its fine!!
i stopped around 11weeks and i was absolutely thrilled and didnt think twice about it. my progesterone was also realllly high in early blood draws so i wasnt too concerned.

It's amazing you get to stop progesterone! It means everything is going well! I think it's perfectly normal to be nervous, but trust your doctor

Excited for you! Enjoy not having to take those shots.

I was REALLY nervous...however-I did think 9 weeks was the earliest to stop. I ended up staying on it for 14 weeks with Drs approval
