For Abnormal Uterine Bleeding "I have had a nonstop period for about 4-5 years now (I’m 29). I took Provera for 10 days last year, and it stopped my period for about 2-3 months, and then once again started. About 2 weeks ago, my doctor prescribed Provera again, and this time, yay. It’s so heavy, it’s like a water faucet has turned on and hasn’t stopped. The cramps are soooo bad. It’s been about 6 days since my last pill. It’s been a struggle. I go see an OB/GYN soon and hopefully can get some answers then."

For Birth Control "My last normal cycle was the 23rd of March 2017. On the 10th of April, I started spotting, on the 11th, it stopped. Then I started spotting on the 14th, then it stopped on the 15th, then started bleeding on the 18th of April until the month ending, very heavy and lots of clots. I went to the clinic and then they sent me for an ultrasound and blood test. I didn't have the money to do these, so the following week I checked myself into the emergency room at the hospital. They gave me Provera to stop the bleeding, which stopped in 5 days of taking 2 pills 3 times a day. The scans came back negative for any growths. I started bleeding again on the 24th, now taking Provera prescribed at 2 pills 2 times a day. It's day 5, still bleeding from the 24th. I'm so tired..."

For Abnormal Uterine Bleeding "My doctor put me on Provera 10 mg. I’ve been suffering with bleeding and clots. A blood test also showed I have low iron and am anemic. I have constipation too. After taking Provera for about 3 months, still bleeding irregularly. Legs feel heavy, looks like I swallowed a damn soccer ball. Got terrible cramps, feel exhausted, get terrible headaches. Feels like my body is giving up on me. So sick and tired of being sick and tired. Just want my life back, my energetic healthy self."
