I am on my second 10 day cycle and still no period. If it works this time, I will recommend it. My husband and I will soon by trying to get pregnant however, I need to ovulate first! | 28 | 10 days | 9/5/2006 | 1 | No period for 7 months | depressed and hungry...nausated!! | I kinda think it sucks...I took it for 10 days and he said id get it inbetween there or 7 days afterwards and i never got it. Saturday was my 17th day and nothing came...so i guess another trip to the doctor! | F | 20 | 10 days | 9/4/2006 | 5 | induce period | very mild cramping and diarrhea | I havent had a period in 4 months. I took 5 day/10 mg to induce a period. My period came on the 6th day after the last pill. Very satisfied with this pill. I took it last year for the same problem and did regulate period for about 9 months. | F | 25 | 10 days | 8/21/2006 | 5 | I have pcos | 10mg for 7 days Very large appetite and moody low concentration it has been 5 days since taking the last pill and still no period i have taking provera numerous times in the past and it has worked my dr told me 2 come back if no period | F | 24 | 7 days | 8/20/2006 | 5 | INDUCE PERIOD/INFERTILITY | Very tired and quiet around 6pm. Pain in my joints while sleeping. Dozing off a lot during the day. Nothing too bad. | I took provera for 5 days (10mg). 4 days after my last pill I started my period. It was weird for me to actually have a period because I haven't had one for about a year. Provera gave me the most normal period I have ever had. There is a bunch of cramping, and heavy bleeding, but I dont really care, as long as I'm having one. Tomorrow I start clomid for 5 days, so hopefully everything works as planned and I become pregnant after 2 years of trying. I would definantly recomend provera to anyone that is trying to start up their period and ovulate. It really does work, even though you might not think it will, just give it time after you take your last pill and you will see what i mean. | F | 22 | 5 days | 8/16/2006 | 5 | induce period/ ttc | This is my second time on provera (day 2). Last time, I had severe panic attacks, depression, moodiness, bloating, increased appetite. This time, I was sad for a few minutes after taking it and had problems sleeping. But, today I have more energy than ever. My mood has improved dramatically. | F | 28 | 5 days | 8/16/2006 | 5 | induce menstrual cycle | Very moody(very) small amt of acne, some depression about 5pm everyday, hot flashes | Very satisfied worked just as expected. This is the fist step to my infertility treatments on to clomid. If you are taking this for anovulation it works. | F | 27 | 10 days | 8/10/2006 | 1 | Endometriosis | Bloating, weight gain, irritable, depressed, suicidle, constant bleeding, lower back and hip pain, weird dreams | 30mg a day for 3mths to stop my periods, only at end of month 1, constant bleeding, bloating and weight gain, which isnt helping depression, darent weigh myself, up 2dress sizes!!In constant pain, feel 95yrs old.My breasts look great though. Very bad moods swings, from crying felling suicidle to wanting to lash out, so so not like me. Dont take it unless you have too, am stopping mine now after reading others suffering too, thought i was just losing the plot. | F | 35 | 1 months | 8/10/2006 | 2 | Ammenoriah | Migraines, Dizzyness, Moodyness, Extreme Bloating, Cramps, Hunger, Insomina, Nausea, Back Pain, Blurry Vision | I am on day 6 of a 10 day prescription. I have not had a period for a long time. Dr. prescribed it last week and so far I would rather live with no period for a long time and no meds. I feel like I am going to die. I am hoping something good happens soon. | F | 24 | 6 days | 8/9/2006 | 2 | Ammenoriah | Migraines, Dizzyness, Moodyness, Extreme Bloating, Cramps, Hunger, Insomina | I am on day 6 of a 10 day prescription. I have not had a period for a long time. Dr. prescribed it last week and so far I would rather live with no period for a long time and no meds. I feel like I am going to die. I am hoping something good happens soon. | F | 24 | 6 days | 8/9/2006 | 5 | PCOS + TTC | General cramping and bloating (nothing more than the usual PMS). | I was put on 10mcg of Provera for 12days after getting off birthcontrol and not getting my period for 4 months. The day after I took my first dose of Provera I began spotting followed by my period the day after that. So I'd say I'm very satisfied with it! Now on to Clomid... | F | 28 | 3 days | 7/20/2006 | 4 | to induce menstruation/conception | mild acne, and no others | I was prescribed a 10 day treatment, and started spotting on day 6. Doc told me to stop the provera and come in for a visit. Trying to induce period to get back on Clomid. | F | 27 | 6 days | 7/19/2006 | 4 | Trying to Conceive/Annovulation | Mild headache, slightly moody | This is my 2nd round with provera. I really didn't have a problem with any side effects while taking the medicine, however when my period came on it was awful the 1st time. I had severe cramping and very heavy flow which caused me to miss some time from work. It lasted for 10 days. I'm on day 7 of my period this time, so it's still lasting for what seems like forever, but the cramping isn't bad this time, and the flow is still heavy, but I only had 1 really bad day, which luckily fell on a day off this time! Each time, I started 5 days after taking the last pill. This medicine does it's job. I'm on my first try of clomid, so hopefully I won't have to take it again, but for my purposes, I would take it again if I had to, but only because I want a baby so badly. Being someone who is used to having very light, or no periods at all, I can't stand the mess of such a heavy flow. | F | 32 | 10 days | 7/17/2006 | 3 | Induce a missed period | It started out with bloating, headaches, breast tenderness and then the biggest side effect was my moood! I thought I was going to bite my husband's head off! I also would cry at the drop of a hat! I am on day 7 now and the side effects have leveled off. Now I am having very vivid and lucid dreams and some spotting. | The main reason I am on this is to jump start my period. I have had normal periods for the last year since getting off the pill. My husband and I just started trying to conceive so my GYN thinks this missed period could have been stress from that, or my job since I have been traveling so much. I am spotting, but anxiously waiting for AF! Good luck to you all as well on this drug. I would definitely take it again. It does nothing more then give you a bad case of PMS. | F | 32 | 7 days | 7/12/2006 | 3 | induced period, pcos | extreme irritability, mood swings, just unpleasant to people around me | 2nd time taking provera. day 11 after completing dosage, still no period, just extreme cramping and spotting. | F | 31 | 10 days | 7/9/2006 | 4 | pcos-induce period after 7 months | The main side effect which is bothering me is joint pain and severe backache. I have also suffered from frequent headaches. | Although joint pain is quite bad provera has done what it is supposed to. My period was quite light and I didnt have too much cramping. | F | 24 | 2 months | 7/2/2006 | 4 | Induce period after L & D | Bloating, Cramps, Depression, Weight Gain | This is the second time I am on provera. I was prescibed a ten day supplement. I took it for eight days and received my menstrual cycle on the eighth day. So I did not get to take the remaining two pills. I give this a four because of the side affects. Provera has worked both times. | F | 21 | 10 days | 6/29/2006 | 1 | simple endometrial hyperplasia | Horrible depression, stomach discomfort, extremely heavy bleeding, no appetite and constipation. Mood was so bad I was afraid I might harm someone!! Will never use again. | F | 52 | 14 days | 6/19/2006 | 5 | To induce period. TTC | Absolutely none. | I took provera for 7 days (10mg x2 per day). My period came about 7 days after last tablet was taken. Got a light period with mild cramping which is normal for me. | F | 30 | 7 days | 6/10/2006 |
