I'm taking Susten medication as part of my pregnancy plan. My doctor hasn't given a specific end date yet. When do doctors usually advise to stop Susten in pregnancy?
In our family, we believe in letting nature take its course, but for medical supports like Susten, we must completely trust the doctor. My gynac told me to stop it gradually around week 14. Always follow your doctor's advice on this, dear.
I was also on Susten during my early months and my doctor stopped it around week 12 once my scans were completely normal. I went on to have a healthy, normal delivery. Just follow your doctor's plan and don't take any tension.
Susten is a progesterone hormone support, so you must never stop it on your own. Only your gynac can tell you when it is safe to stop based on your scans, so please consult them.
Oh, I was so terrified when my doctor told me to stop Susten in my second trimester! I kept thinking, what if my progesterone levels drop? But my doctor explained that the placenta takes over by then. Please don't stop it without your doctor's exact instructions, they will guide you.
I know how stressful it is to be on progesterone support like Susten and constantly worry about when it will stop. Honestly, my doctor had me stop it around the 12th week and everything went smoothly. Just trust your doctor, they know what is best for you and your baby.
Looking back, taking Susten felt like such a huge deal, but my doctor stopped it in my second trimester and my baby is now a healthy toddler running around. Don't worry, your doctor will tell you exactly when your body is ready to stop it.
