Medroxy And Periods
UpdatedHere is my story. I'm 35 and have always had odd or no periods. I do have pcos and had endometriosis. The end of October this year I had a d & c and a hysto-something to clear me out and run diagnostics. Then started the medroxy for 10 days on the 16th of November. Just started my period on the 4th and it seems to be just like all my other past ones. Like I'm dying. If it stays like this do I start my next medroxy round on the 16th still? Before the d & c I hadn't had a period for well over a year and a half. Most of my periods that I have had normally last for 6 weeks to 3 months. Again like I'm dying. I'm working on all this to finally start my family. So any help is good help.

Hello, Moni! How are you? I'm sorry about the problems you're having.
Yes, you should follow your doctor's instructions for when to take it. This is generally used to try to correct a hormonal imbalance and help a woman's cycle become regular.
The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including nausea, dizziness, headache, weight changes and PMS-like symptoms.
Is there anything else I can help with?
I finally stopped my period on the 11th of Dec. And started the medroxy again on the 16th. And according to my math I should be ovulating today. Will this pill stop that or affect me getting pregnant?
