Question did Provera work for you???

I was put on Provera for 10 days to induce my period, it has worked. I was just curious as too if this really has worked for peole and got everything "on track". I would love to hear any stories!

I'm not sure what you mean by "on track" but Provera always has worked for me to bring on a period since I don't get them on my own.

I've taken it before for five days and gotten AF a few days later. It's worked every time for me.

As for getting things "on track", it's only effective to bring on one AF, you have to take it again the next cycle if you don't get AF on your own.

As far as "on track" meaning to jump start everything. I am also on 2000 mg Met/day. My endo said she wanted to put me on the Provera to help everything get going. Does this sound right?

I don't agree with your doctor's theory but that's just me. I have been on Metformin now for almost a year and I am yet to ovulate or get a period on my own so I still have to resort to Provera to get my period.
Hopefully this will get things started for you.

My GYN has told me to take the provera to help bring on AF if she doesn't appear on her own, every 3 to 4 mounths. It has always worked for me within 2 weeks. I just finished a cycle now and hope that she shows up.

HTH,

Hi,

In September my doctor gave me a prescription of Provera to take for 10 days so I would get my period. At that time I was over 50 days of not having it. My periods are usually 40 to 50 days late and when I do get them they are light and I only have it for about 2 to 4 days. At the time in September I did not make it to the pharmacy to get them for 2 days later after I got the prescription and when I went to get them and got home I had my period. Now I still have those pills I can use. Well that last four weeks I have been having problems with my back so I have been going to the chiropractor. It was a Friday I started going. But that Tuesday I had gotten my period from Tuesday to Thursday. I went to the chiropractor on that Friday and when I got home I had my period again only for that day. Well yesterday I was suppose to get my period again but I went to the chiropractor because when it is time for it to come going to the chiropractor and being adjusted can make it come. By last night I did not have AF yet. This morning I got up and took one Provera pill and about 45 minutes ago I got my period. I am wondering if I got it because I had been to the chiropractor cause can just taking one pill make it come? I just saw my nurse in the hallway and I said that I got my AF and she said good for you. She said how many women wish for their period. Sorry if there is TMI.
