Default Anyone out there use Prometrium?

Hi Guys:
I have not had any lucky previously posting but I hope this time I do- so I have PCOS and I am trying to get prego- I am on Metformin (2000 MG a day UGH ) and then my doctor gave me prometrium to help start my period- so I did my 7 days of pills twice a day so 400 mg a day and now it is 7 days later after I finished them and still no period- does anyone know if I have to wait 30 more days to start them again and try for another period and does it normally take a few cycles to start a period with them- ANY Help would be great- I am lost right now and my doctors nurse is no help!!! I had slight bleeding two days ago and cramping but no heavy flow so I cant count that as a period they said- PLEASE HELP!!!

Did you take them orally or vaginally?
I would give it another week and if nothing happens, do another round vaginally for five days. if nothing happens after that, you may have had too low of estrodiol to build up a lining.
I go through a lot of prometrium. ugh.

I have used Provera to start my periods and it worked. The doctor gave me the option of taking Provera for 20 days and then the cycle would begin or taking it 10 days and then the cycle would begin. I chose the 10 day treatment option and it worked like a charm.
