This is in regard to Provera, which is a pill that helps to either jumpstart the menstrual cycle or regulate it. Please don't confuse this with Depo-Provera. I am NOT talking about the birth control shot. I would like to know if anyone has taken Provera and how many days did you bleed? I am now on day 5 and still bleeding very heavy. Sorry for this TMI - going through a pad every 2-3 hours. I am also taking Clomid on days 5-9 to help with fertility. Today is day 5 and hubby and I are supposed to start having sex on day 10. I'm worried I may still be bleeding then. Anyone have any experience with this drug?
Serious answers only please!

I appreciate the concern but this is my first cycle of Provera and I wasn't having a period or ovulating before this. Without any drugs, I would have extremely light periods or no period at all. I certainly wasn't ovulating either. This is my gynecologists plan of attack. Menstruate first and then do the Clomid to aid in ovulation. By the way, my hubby and I had been trying naturally to conceive for almost a year. Wasn't gonna happen that way.

I think you should stop taking the Provera pill, I am not a medical professional, but I believe that all these hormones you are using is what is affecting you natural cycle and inhibiting your baby making.

This drug i have taken for several months usually the bleeding cycle is anywhere from 5 to 7days. But if it lasts longer than that or the bleeding gets worse contact your doctor just to make sure that nothing is wrong. But however my cycle is always worse when i have to tak provera. Also i don't know if they told you to take a pregnancy test before you take a round of provera.If you are pregnant and take this drug it will cause birth defects or possible miscarriage. If you have more questions contact your doctor.
