How long did you test progesterone?

Just curious for how long those of you who are further along in your pregnancies tested your progesterone. One of my main problems with preg. loss was due to progesterone so I am still nervous about it even at 21 weeks. My doctors don't order the test unless I ask.
Thanks!

Julie -

I believe they stopped testing mine once they began regular ultrasounds but i remained on the suppositories and injections until about 10 weeks.  Like Lisa said, once your placenta takes over you should be fine!

Hi,

I don't think you have anything to worry about at 21 weeks.

They tested mine up until 8 weeks.

Yours is obviously fine otherwise you would have had problems earlier.

Rest easy!!

i was tested through the 1st trimester but thats it.  They wont test yu after that per my re due to levels are high enough long as the placenta is in place.  Once you stop the suppositiories they no longer test.
