I'm 26, and since Jul.1/06-present (Aug.7/06), I've had my period every day. It's extremely difficult to go through, I've never had this happen before.

Last week, I had blood tests done, and things seemed to come back ok. So the next step was he prescribed provera (5mg/day). I was to take it for 3-4 days, and if the period didn't stop, then I needed to increase my dosage to 2x 5mg/day. I've been on the increased dosage for a few days now. And, still the period has not stopped.

I'll be seeing the dr. in a couple dsyas to follow up. And see what's going to happen next.

Perhaps an ultra sound, but not totally sure if that will show anything.

hi i'm 22 and this is my third time being prescribed provera and it works for me i take it once daily for 10 days i took the last one today and it stopped i think but i had anal sex last night and i'm bleeding but i'm not sure where it's comming from but anyway in the past i've had good experiences with provera...and i want to have a baby so birth control is kind of out of the question for my situation. My doc told me that would be the only way for me to control my mensus but i refuse becuase i had bc in the past and i didn't have good reactions so i'll pass. But good luck to you all and if it doesn't stop give your doc a call and discuss it with them so you can come up with a better plan.

I am 35 years old and my cycle has been irregular now for about 4 years, and now I just had another exam with another doctor and he's prescribing me provera, but i here you all saying you are taking provera to stop the bleeding so what i was trying to see what's the tie in to provera stopping and helping you develope a cycle, because right now i am not having a cycle and it's been prescribed for me.
