Why Am I Bleeding

Updated

I've been on medroxy for 3 years but stopped in oct 2013. I got a new doctor who put me back on march 2014, I started at 60mg a day because I bleed and don't come off my period. I got down to 40mg the week before last. Last week I started the 20mg. I had intercourse for the first time in a year on 4/5. Everything was fine. I had intercourse on 4/12. On 4/14 I started bleeding and have not stopped. My bleeding is increasing. My doctor told me to up it to 40mg again. In the past was only on 5mg at the most and I have never had this problem. I can't stop bleeding. I'm giving it until Friday before I call my doctor again to see what he wants me to do. This has never happened to me before. What could be going on?

Hello, Nina! How are you doing?

The levels of progesterone that are naturally produced by your body may have changed, so you aren't producing as much, thus are bleeding on a much lower dose of it than before.

Have you tried raising the dose again, as your doctor suggested?

Hi I have a similar storey I had excessive bleeding and endo pain and my doctor put me on medroxyprogesterone 30mg a day every day and iv been on it for 3 years, suddenly it seems I want to bleed no matter what, and every time I do bleed I feel real poorly. Is it safe that iv been on this drug for so long.
