Hi,
As your endometrium should be enhanced for proper implantation should you conceive in this cycle, you would need the medication. Yet, estrogens are contraindicated when pregnancy is contemplated. Effect of hormones on the embryo has been seen after 45 days, so your doctor may have prescribed this now. Once implantation has occurred, you may not need the medication and supportive treatment is ensued, so as to prevent a miscarriage. Please discuss with your doctor if you do not wish to continue the drug. Take care.
