When should i stop taking progesterone during pregnancy?
My gynac put me on progesterone after a small spotting issue in early weeks. Im 13 weeks now and still taking it, just curious till when do u usually continue? Will ask doc also but wanted to hear ur experiences.
Never stop progesterone without your doctor's explicit instruction. It's usually tapered off around the end of the first trimester, but every pregnancy is different. Your gynac knows best, just follow their schedule for discontinuation.
Ugh, progesterone can make morning sickness worse, na? But it's super important. Your doctor will tell you the exact week to stop. Usually around the end of the first trimester, but for some, it might be longer. Don't just stop taking it, okay? Ask your gynac.
Oh, I remember those days! So many medicines and so many questions. My gynac told me when to stop progesterone, it was around 12 weeks for me. It felt like a big milestone! Your doctor will guide you perfectly, don't worry. Just focus on your little one growing inside.
Yeh toh doctor hi batayenge. Meri saas bhi kehti thi ki jo doc bole wahi karna, apni marzi se kuch nahi. Normally, first trimester ke baad doc dheere dheere band kar dete hain but depends on your case.
Oh, I totally remember being so anxious about this! I felt like progesterone was my baby's lifeline. My doctor told me when to gradually reduce it, typically after 10-12 weeks once the placenta takes over. Don't stop on your own, please, always consult your gynac.
Generally, progesterone support is given until about 10-12 weeks of pregnancy, which is when the placenta is fully developed and takes over hormone production. However, for some conditions like a history of recurrent miscarriages or IVF pregnancies, doctors might extend it until 16-20 weeks. Always follow your gynac's specific instructions for your case.
My pregnancy app reminded me when my doc was likely to start tapering off progesterone. Most docs advise it till week 10-12, but it's very specific to your situation. Make sure you discuss it thoroughly with your gynac during your next check-up. Don't make any changes without their approval!
Be positive, beta. For all medicines during pregnancy, especially something like progesterone, only your doctor can tell you when to stop. Unki baat suno aur apna khayal rakho. Bhagwan ki kripa se sab theek hoga.
Dearest, this is one of those things you absolutely cannot decide on your own. Progesterone is crucial in early pregnancy. Your doctor will assess your progress and tell you the exact timing and how to gradually reduce the dosage. Please call your gynac's office for clear instructions.
Honestly, taking any medicine without doctor's advice is risky, especially for pregnancy. Progesterone is important, so follow exactly what your doc says. Avoid any complications that might lead to extra hospital visits or tests, that can be costly. Just ask your gynac directly.
