Stopping progesterone

I've been on progesterone since 6 weeks for recurrent miscarriages, now 16 weeks and my consultant says it's fine to stop. Saw my midwife yesterday and she said I can wean off it for a week or two, and just take one a day instead of two. Has anybody else done this? Also my midwife asked if I'd had a cervical length scan, which I haven't. But now my anxiety is super high wondering why she asked that. My consultant has never mentioned this before. Has anyone else been asked that or had one when stopping progesterone.

Easy said than done but try to not to panic, they are just being thorough with you given your history I believe, you might be seen as a little higher risk is all, I know I am being that I've had reoccurring miscarriages and Im now an IVF pregnancy, I'll probably need one as I'm higher risk of preterm birth etc 😊💖 xx

They would usually only measure cervical length if you have either had surgery on your cervix before or had late term miscarriages. Your placenta should be fully up and running by now so progesterone shouldn't really be an issue.
