| 3 | no period for 2 months | Had some cramping but I usually do get cramping when my normal period starts. | Did not have a period for 2 months. Was given 10mg of Provera a day for 5 days. My period started 4 days after I finished the Provera but I am still on my period. Have been on my period for about 10-11 days now. | F | 26 | 5 days | 4/14/2009 | 2 | thin lining of uterus | sleeplessness, bad cramping-had to sleep with heating pad on stomach and back, bloating, overall just felt not myself | Was taking this to keep lining of my uterus thin as I was scheduled to have d & c and other surgery in 3 month; I had had some very bad periods that last quite long, sounded like a good idea but not for me, I would have rather dealt with the long period. | F | 46 | 14 days | 4/10/2009 | 5 | yes | no side effects | period started about 4 day s after I finished the medicine | F | 38 | 10 days | 4/9/2009 | 3 | To induce period after taking clom. | Moody, extremely tired, sore, gas/bloating, increased appetite, and slight depression. | After taking the medication for 10 days I received my period four days later. It was a light period and lasted for 7 days, now I have been spotting for the last 6 days...I feel that my body is confused and doesn't know how to respond. | F | 28 | 1 months | 4/2/2009 | 4 | To stop heavy bleeding | achiness in legs; tired and depressed (although could be my job), puffiness in legs and ankles. | F | 53 | 40 days | 3/31/2009 | 1 | Secondary Amenorrhea | Depression, anxiety, panic attacks, loss of appetite, weight loss, nervousness, loss of self-esteem, difficulty concentrating | I have been on Provera for four months. After my last dose I had a traumatizing panic attack and have subsequently been anxious and nervous non-stop for no reason. I feel depressed and hopeless and can't concentrate. All of the anxiety has caused me to lose my appetite and a considerable amount of weight. I don't feel like myself and don't feel like I'm ever going to be the same again because the panic, anxiety and depression have taken a major blow to my confidence. I would strongly advise against this medication for anyone with a tendency towards anxiety and/or depression. | F | 26 | 4 months | 3/27/2009 | 3 | induce period to start clomid | extremely tired all the time, VERY moody, nausea, indigestion, weight gain, cramping | TTC for 1 1/2 yrs.
