Possibly. Last visit (thurs) they said it was all normal and i was on the standard dose... So may have to put up with it. One doc said i could stop 10/11 weeks, but one said 13- so i'm hesitant to stop early, despite wanting to! It seems odd that I have to take it daily for so long to sustain the pregnancy, then can just stop suddenly!
Once you reach a certain gestation, the placenta really kicks in with progesterone production. Maybe your placenta is already doing a good job and your level is high. I was feeling terrible with my dose of 200mg daily, so now I take it every other day.
I was told I could quit my progesterone after 12 weeks by my Ob but the high risk says 16 weeks. My preogesterone level was a 58 last time they checked. I started with 100mg 2x day then went to 200 2x a day and now doing 200 in the morning and 100mg at night...along with the baby aspirin of course. The baby aspirin I take until 3rd tri at about 35 to 36 weeks I think. Although I have no clotting disorders I did test positive for ANA's....idk! Hoping this regimen is sustaining everything.
