| 3 | I had an ovarian cyst | Since takin provera I've been experiencing an upset tummy all the time and cramping | F | 30 | 10 days 10mg | 5/28/2013 | 1 | PCOS patient/lack of menstrual cycl | Took meds for 10 days, as required. Now, three days later, I am unable to keep anything down. Severe mood swings as well as diarrhea. Crippling abdominal pains, dizziness, nausea and a few other symptoms. Called to speak with my doctor, and his nurse says just to "deal with it because it can't be that bad." The GALL! | F | 20 | 10 days 10MG | 5/20/2013 | 1 | Heavy Bleeding | massive headaches, numbness, tingling in my right hand, down my right leg and foot, severe cramping, lower back pain, bloating | I could go on and on about what I felt while taking this as I've never had a reaction to any for of Progeterone as I've been a surrogate twice without any issues to it. This was my first cycle since my 11-12-12 C-Section. I got my cycle 2-8-13 and was prescribed the generic of Provera (Medroxyprogesterone 10 MG Tablet) to take once a day for my extremely heavy cycle that I had from a C-Section. I started taking it on 2-12-13 and on 2-17-13 I started to have a numb and tinging sensation in my right hand and down my right leg and foot. I called and left a message with my OBGYN on 2-18-13 and was told by his nurse to continue taking it, I stated to her what about the numbess and tingling and was told to continue to take the medicine since my cycle was starting to lighten. I went from soaking a pad, panties and pants every two hours to about every 4 hours, that's considered lightened. By the end of the week I couldn't lift my right foot. I've had severe pain, cramping, lower back pain, right pelvic pain so when I got my cycle on 3-4-13 just as heavy I went into his office and seen him he gave me Generess Fe and Irospan 24/6 to take, I told him about the numbess, tingling and my foot and he didn't say anything. I bled for 2 months straight with spotting after that. I went to see my regular doctor when I couldn't get my OBGYN to sort what was up with my foot because I almost face planted the ground several times and didn't know what was going on with the numbing, tingling | F | 37 | 19 days 10 MG 1X day | 4/28/2013 | 3 | restart my period | I was on depo birth control shot 4 6yrs stopped a yr n mnth ago so i took provera 10mg once day for ten days today is 8th day since taking last pill & still no period cramping anxious moody fatigued and some loss of concentration rash/bumps on chest and arms i just wana feel normal again so ...still waiting n week i go back to Dr if no period by then...... | F | 28 | 10 days 10mg | 4/20/2013 | 1 | Not get pregnant | i was wondering if you had any idea about having nausea throughout the day, dizzy, weak legs, not able to sleep at night fall asleep around 1am and wake up at 3 or 4am and cannot go back to sleep until later on in the morning and could sleep all day, night sweats not often but had them, mild headaches not often, my breasts get alil tingling sensation but not often but i have noticed it, constantly bloated in my upper stomach area, not really having an appetite but get hungry at night, hot flashes, crying over silly things or things i have no business crying over, hair growing back really fast after i shave, dizzy when i stand sometimes, brownish discharge, increase vaginal discharge, no period since i been on this shot, vagina dryness, i do not want sex at all, constipated, dry skin, loss interest in my daily activities... i feel as if i am pregnant which i know i am not.

Will give you an update once I get to Day 21. | F | 46 | 21 days 10MG 3X day | 1/6/2013 | 4 | no period/PCOS, trying for a baby | My sleeping patterns were off... I couldnt sleep well at night and was exhausted ALL day. I found myself to be moody, but nothing different than PMS. (It was a bit odd tho, because I dont get PMS very often, prob due to the lack of hormones). | I would go 4 months here, 2 months there without a period... and we are trying to conceive, so when you dont have a period, you dont ovulate. If you dont ovulate... you got it, no baby. I'm hoping this works and we get pregnant on the first month of being on Provera, although I know it may take a lotttttt longer. I have PCOS and so that makes things even tougher. If not, on to Clomid and whatever else is out there! | F | 29 | 10 days 10mg 1X H | 12/11/2012 | 2 | induce my period | severe hot flashes and night sweats | F | 49 | 5 days 10mg 1X day | 12/3/2012 | 3 | to regulate my period | First month it worked fine.
