Default Did Provera work for you?

The doctor put me on Provera (actually I got the generic equivalent) for 10 days, but it didn't work. She said Provera would help me get my period, but nothing happened. I took my last pill 3 days ago. I don't have an appointment with the doctor until the end of May. I'm wondering if I should call her and ask for another prescription or if Provera is just not going to work for me?

Hi. Provera worked for me. My af came while on the 5th pill. I've heard some girls don't get af up to 7 (or even more) days after. You may want to call as well, but I'm betting they'll ask you to give it a few more days. Good luck!

Call doc.

Usually the 5 day version works for me but I've also taken 10 day. Your dose may not be right for you or it may just take a few more days to show.

First (and only time) I took, it did work on me. But this was back many, many years ago.
