I haven't started clomid (due to go to the doctor next week for it) but I did take provera in March (no period on my own for 6 months) but I didn't start ovulating on my own for another 3 months. Usually they won't even put you on clomid until you have a few bouts of no periods or have been trying for at least a year, depending on your age. I finally had a period on May 27th- June 2nd and got a positive opk today. You always run the chance of having false positives on opks too when you go long periods without AF (I had 3 in 2 months that were false). Take whatever advice your docs can give you and run with it. I also started AF the day after my last provera pill and I was also on 10 mg. I hope this helps you.
I started ovulating on my own after the provera. I used it in January and at that time I did not come on for 2 months.I had 3 more pills left to take before I came on, so I did not need the rest, My doc told me to call back if I did not get my period after I finished taking the meds. The med for me had me with side effects and that was horrible, but I hope that it works for you and maybe you won't have to use clomid . See what it does for a couple of month before trying the clomid. Ever since i took the provera I haven't had anymore problems. Good luck.
Just started taking Provera. This is my third day on it. Still bleeding heavy to lightly. I went in to see the doctor they did a blood and urine test. Everything came back normal i wasn't pregnant. My doctor said my estrogen levels were low. So he prescribed Provera 5 mg for 7 days. The 2nd day i was on it i was having really bad abdominal pain and back pain. I know some of the side effects are back and abdominal pain but after about an hour they went away. Should i be concerned about this is it it normal for women to have these symptons while takin this medication.
Ivory - I think that could be normal. But I do want to caution that I took a blood test after a full cycle and it came back negative that I was not preggo. I started provera again because my period was 4 days late and I didn't think I was going to start on my own. About 3 days into the provera I started having spotting and ab/back pain. It ended up being an ectopic pregnancy. If your symptoms get worse over time, if you start spotting, or show up + on an opk while on the provera, go see your dr (or ER staff if the pain is super bad). But period like symptoms should be fairly normal when on provera.
