Who has taken provera/progesterone?
I've taken provera for the past six months because I am not getting my period on my own. I am still not getting it on my own but I feel like my dr doesnt care and it's offering other suggestions. Just wondering who else has taken provera and if they've gotten pregnant from taking provera or if they also had to take clomid to get pregnant? How long did it take you to get pregnant? I just want to be pregnant so badly and I am tired of waiting and trying because that's all my dr is suggesting. Maybe it's time to find a new OBGYN?!

I have pcos and have used provera. Provera helps ttc because it helps jumpstart new cycles when you dont ovulate regularly. Sometimes, if you jumpstart a cycle, your body will naturally ovulate the next cycle. But I have never seen this. Everyone I know that has used it, has to go on clomid to induce ovulation. Provera is really only used to jump start the next cycle.
Most of the time, your cycle will start after you STOP the provera (not during). Just like normal cycles, you start to bleed when your natural progesterone drops. It's basically withdraw bleeding just like when on birth control pills. If you are taking provera everyday it wont help cause provera hinders ovulation. I'd get a second opinion.
