I really felt like it was too early for me to stop taking the progesterone. My RE wanted me to stop at 8 weeks but agreed to let me take it until 10. I took my last one Friday night and now I'm spotting. I felt like something bad was going to happen when I stopped it. My OB just called me back and said that if it stays the way it is, to call in the morning and they'll tell me where to go for an ultrasound. If it gets worse, to call her back and go to the ER. I'm so scared for my babies

I did IVF so my ovaries weren't producing progesterone at all. The supps were the only thing supporting the pregnancy until the placentas take over. My RE said that would have happened already but others say it doesn't fully happen until 12 weeks.

When I stopped Progestrogne I was spotting brown. My doctor told me it was "normal" because it was just my body trying to kick into gear and process it on my own.
But I hope you get some answers T&P's being sent.
Sorry, jumping over from PAL
Most doctors I've talked to have said the placenta takes over around 10 weeks. I believe a few of the girls on PAL also had some spotting when they went off, feel free to pop over and ask! As difficult as it is remember that stress is worse for you, try to stay semi-calm & enjoy your day!
Much Love~

Yes. I took another one about 45 minutes ago. I think I'm going to ask her if I can wean off. I was on 3/day so I'm going to see if she'll let me do 2/day this week and 1/day next week.

I know it won't make you feel any better, but my RE said it is common to spot when you stop progesterone. He has me tapering my dose to try to prevent that, could you maybe ask your doc if that might help? I can only imagine how terrifying that must be, but I bet it is just from the progesterone withdrawl. ((HUGS))
ETA I see you are going to ask about weaning off. Good luck hun!
