Hello all! I'm mostly over on the Multiples board but was hoping it was ok to post here as well. My DH and I ttc for 4 years and IVF #1 was successful and we now have two beautiful twin girls who are 4.5 months old. I am not breastfeeding and only tried it for 2 days in the hospital. I still have not gotten my first post partum period. Our infertility was mostly unexplained but I do have slight PCOS. I would get my period every 35-50 days so it was irregular before pregnancy. My OB told me to call if I didn't have it at 3 months. I decided to wait because I was on so many hormones to get pregnant I didn't want to jump into that route again.
Just wondering if anyone else took Provera to bring it on and if you did, how long did you wait? I was thinking of waiting until the 6 month mark but I don't know if it's better to just get this show on the road or what...
I have taken it in the past. After my son was born I waited to see if I would get a cycle on my own. I did get one, when he was 9 mo old. Then I didn't get one again until I took it in August when we officially started trying for #2. I haven't had problems when I take it, I get my period about a day or 2 after I stop taking it.
