Stopped Estrace today at 9 weeks 5 days
Hello , Today i Stopped Estrace today at 9 weeks 5 days but i was supposed to stop at 9 weeks. Am panicking ? praying that my baby is doing good without it. Did you feel different after stopping estrace. I am having like pinching feeling on my right side.
From alberta Canada. Yes she sends me for ultrasound. She’s the best. If it wasn’t for her we wouldn’t have got the push to check fertility.
No meds yet. But will be doing blood work every month to check if I do need meds. Apparently you can have low TSH in first trimester.
Efong, Sorry to hear that ? do you have to take meds for hyperthyroidism? Does your family doc sends you for ultrasound? Where you from ?
No. We don’t see our OB here until middle our second trimester. My family doctor follows me until then. She also reassured me that the placenta will take over by 10 weeks. She’s happy to prescribe more for me. So she’s going to write me a prescription and I can fill it if I like just to ease my anxiety. I have 1 week’s worth. I think I’ll taper myself to twice a day next week. Oh on the other hand I just got diagnosed with subclinical hyperthyroidism. ?. More things to worry about
Hey Efong,
Am feeling much better i think it was ache from uterus stretching. I wonder too what was the estrace for. Am still on progesterone until 11 weeks. Tomorrow I’ll be 10 weeks. I really don’t want to stop progesterone until i end the first trimester ?. But we will be fine ?? Did you have your first OB?
How are you feeling angeliz? I’m not far behind you. Stopping meds on Sunday and I’m worried as well. Mostly the progesterone.
Interestingly. I was talking to a colleague who’s daughter is now 10 via IVF. She said she clearly remembers the progesterone. But she said never the estrogen. I’m curious now what estrogen does during the first trimester. Trying to remember my biology days lol.
Thanks Panda ?
