My clinic asked me to reduce by half week 11 of pregnancy (calculating from the first day of last period) and stop during week 12. I had my 12w scan booked 2-3 days after stopping the hormones and that was really reassuring. By week 12 your placenta will produce all hormones for you, don't worry. Follow the clinic's advice. Not having to take any pills, suppositories felt amazing!
