Progesterone

hi! I was prescribed progesterone 4/day but I stopped after taking the first dosage (02 caps) as my spotting stopped. is it okay if I stopped taking progesterone without consulting my gynae? am only seeing my gynae upcoming Thursday 😮‍💨

You shouldn’t stop. The purpose of progesterone is not to stop spotting but to stabilise the pregnancy. Spotting is only one of the many signs that pregnancy may not be stable.

Were u spotting all the way during your pregnancy for the 2weeks? I suggest u to continue eating your medication advised by your gynae

nope! mine doesn’t have clot with it. I’m gonna go for my first scan this Thursday. hopefully all goes well since it’s my second and first I had miscarriage 🥲

So good, I was prescribe duphaston but I still have spotting daily. Hoping to have a healthy pregnancy ):

Was it given because of IVF? If so, should still be taking to be safe
