Progesterone and pregnancy
Have a history of missed miscarriage. I'm 12.5 weeks pregnant now and have been on 100mg progesterone supplements since about 7.5 weeks due to a slightly low level of progesterone of 9.7. I've been told to take until 13 weeks. Should I quit cold turkey? Will I miscarry if I do stop? What it be harmful to take it throughout my whole pregnancy?

Take it until 13 wks only as later on placenta takes over maintaing progesterone levels, however you may get an ultrasound done and get ur progesterone levels re tested ,for any further information or assistance you may get back to us.
