Hello everyone. Another newbie here 
My period has been irregular since menarche. After 5 months of not having one, I decided to go to the dr. The OB suspected it was PCOS, so she prescribed me Provera to induce a period. After 7 days of taking them, I got my period (May 29). On the 6th day(June 3), I went back to the hosp to have an ultrasound.
Lo and behold, both my ovaries have polycystic features  . Dr also asked me to have an FBS (fasting blood sugar) test done. When results came back, it showed my sugar level is normal. She prescribed me 1500mg a day of Metmorfin, to be taken for 6 months. I'm on Met for 7 days now. It's been
a tough week, but I'll survive.
I have a question though... I got my period (after taking provera) on May 29...it was quite long as it stopped only around the 5th of June. 7 days after my last period, I'm bleeding again. It is very light though and it's almost gone now. Is that normal? |

Welcome!
I think it's probably pretty normal to have irregular bleeding under the circumstances. Since your hormones are a little wacky at the moment, your body may not know for sure what's going on. You could probably give your doc a call to be sure, of course. But I vote for "normal". | |

I am taking the same meds....no period yet though. Let me know how things go for you. I'm so curious to know how these things are affecting other girls. | |

actually, the doc told me to expect my period 1st week of next month..she said if i don't get one, i'd have to come back. so i'm a wee bit confused... i had a period 2 weeks earlier than expected, and i'm wondering if i shd still expect a period on the 1st week of july. | |
