As far as I know, you don't ovulate when you take provera. It's like BCPs in that it simulates ovulation to get your body to start menstration.

And if you don't ovulate, you don't get pregnant.

Provera doesn't stimulate ovulation. It just forces your body to shed the uterine lining which cause a bleed, not a true "period". You get a true period after you ovulate and Provera doesn't stimulate ovulation.

It's a progesterone pill. It loads you up with progesterone so your lining thickens, and then you get a progesterone withdrawl period. No ovulation occurs.

OOKK so all this time I've had the wrong understanding. So you dont need to ovulate to get a period?? well @ least when it comes to provera usage?

In a person who gets their period on their own...You get a period, then 14(ish) days later you ovulate, which releases an egg and then 14 (ish) days later you get your period.

I've heard that some people can naturally get their period without ovulating, but typically you need to ovulate to get a natural period.

But, when you use drugs like provera (or even BCPs) you aren't ovulating, the drugs are just bringing on the flow part of your cycle. So while I'll never say never, you won't get pregnant from using provera to bring on your period because it isn't a 'real' period.
