Default Does Provera always work!?

What percentage of people does it work for? Do doctors believe that it works 100%?!

I would say provera works 99% of the time. That is my experience with it since I have been using it since to age of 15 to induce af. It has always worked for me all but once. I get af 3-4 days after finishing last pill, and only 1 out of those times did my period take a little longer to arrive. I will now be using prometrium to induce af as the Dr. I am seeing now says this is a natural form of progesterone that is considered safer. I have not used it yet though. I will use it in may if af does not arrive on her own.

I don't think Drs believe it works 100% of the time, but most of the time.

I've took it 3 times now and its so far worked for me
It takes me about 7 days after finishing to start up AF but my AF is really light and I can hardly tell cause i just spot here and there, my dr says its my AF so I dont know, on BC pills i have a real heavy AF so its kinda weird to me but it seems to be working

I am the odd ball...it didn't work for me!

I took it last month and 3 weeks after taking the last pill nothing happened. I am trying it again this month, I have 3 days left so we will see what happens!

I am new to this site, and Im not sure if this is even how to post, haha, but just in case...
it worked for me on my first cycle using it. i took it twice a day for five days and i ended on tuesday. on wednesday and thursday i started spotting a little bit, but by thursday night i was in full flow. however, i did get REALLY bad cramps, but they only lasted 2 days.
