Comparing Medroxyprogesterone vs Prometrium

For Amenorrhea I was prescribed Provera (10 mg/ 10 days) due to not having a period for several years and so my husband and I can have a baby. Works like a charm. Started period 4 days after taking last pill. 1st day was mild flow and all subsequent days were extremely heavy. It's now day 6 of having a period, which is not normal for me even when I had periods, and continue to have extremely heavy flow. I will be calling my doctors office today as I do not want this to continue. The upside is I did not experience any side effects while taking the medicine.

For Amenorrhea Induced a period around a couple of days after the 10th pill was taken. Caused upset stomach, but otherwise worked well.

For Progesterone Insufficiency I'm 48, and found that this nicely balanced the issues I'm having with estrogen dominance. I've had no side effects that I can tell, but a real clearing up of the fuzzy brain, night sweats, and trouble sleeping. I love it!

For Progesterone Insufficiency I've been taking Prometrium for about 4 months now, & for the most part have no side effects. It works like its suppose to and keeps my progesterone to where it needs to be. However, just an FYI you should always take it before bed with food & I mean lights out in bed to sleep not watching TV or playing on your phone/tablet. If you take Prometrium & not go to bed it will cause a euphoric (high) feeling which may be unsettling to some people & may cause panic, because it does feel really weird.
