Progesterone suppository users... when did you stop
using them? Did you do it gradually or just stopped?

Re: Progesterone suppository users... when did you stop
I stopped using them at exactly 12 weeks as per my doctor. The crazy part is that it continued to come out for about 5 days after...it's pretty nasty!!!!

Re: Progesterone suppository users... when did you stop
i was on 100mg endometrin 3x a day and my high risk ob had me stop them at 12 weeks even though the reg ob said i could stop them at 10 weeks. My high risk wanted me to do them for another 2 weeks.

Re: Progesterone suppository users... when did you stop
I was on 800 mg/day for 6-7 weeks and then my doctor told me that I could just wean myself off of them or just stop altogether when I hit 11 weeks. So I took 200mg/day for the rest of the week and then just stopped.

What's funny is that I was taking the capsules that you insert for most of the time I was on the supps. That stuff was GROSS and kept coming out. Then I ran out and had to go to a CVS for a refill instead of my regular pharmacy and their supps were just a big bullet shaped hardened cream with no casing. They came in this white round box that had to be kept in the fridge. With those I had absolutely no discharge.

I was on 100mg endometrium and at my 7 week appt. they had me stop cold turkey and then tested my levels I think 2 days later which ended up being fine.

Re: Progesterone suppository users... when did you stop
Can I just say that I am so sick of all of these stuff? I am 11 weeks tomorrow and I am still taking one crinone, one progesterone/estrace suppository, 40 mg of prednisone, two lovenox shots, a prenatal, two calcium, and one mentanx. The high risk dr is supposedly going to start reducing me if everything looks good on Monday.

So weird! I know we are due at the same time and both went to Dr B. He reduced my prednisone from 40 to 20 at 7 weeks and I am now off it completely and I stopped the progesterone last week. Still doing lovenox, but I guess I will be doing that til close to my DD.

I was originally on 20mg of prednisone and one lovenox. Once Kofinas saw blood clots in my uterus and placenta, he increased it to 40mg. Dr. B had nothing to do with it.

Youll be doing the lovenox until 36 weeks then switch over to heparin (most likely 2x day - thats what im doing now) and after u have the baby ull go back to lovenox for another 6 weeks

Re: Progesterone suppository users... when did you stop
so I guess its no problem to stop cold turkey then. I go on Friday for my ultrascreen... I will just make sure with the high risk dr then. I can't wait to stop but I'm nervous at the same time!!!
