Provera/medroxyprogesterone

Updated

So my doctor prescribed me medroxyprogesterone 10mg (provera) for 5 days to start AF. I have only taken 2 pills, and woke up this morning and when I wiped, it was brown. It is very stretchy and very mucous like (almost like ewcm except with brown). I am supposed to take my 3rd pill at noon today. Just wondering, is this normal to start bleeding before I have even finished my pills? Last period was October 26th.

Hello, Adri! How are you?

Yes, this is a type of hormone, so it can cause some spotting, while you're taking it. Other side effects, as listed by the FDA may include nausea, headache, irritability, and PMS-like symptoms.

Is there anything else I can help with?

Hello. I have not had a period for about a year. I had was prescribed with medroxyprogesterone 10mg take 1 tablet once a day for 14 days. But I’m worried of the symptoms. I have read that they make you have nightmares, nausea, dizzy, headaches, slur speech, drowsy or insomnia. Can you tell me if these symptoms are true or when is the best time to take this medication?
