We have been on a break from treatment since September to lose weight. Due to having PCOS and being overweight I haven't O'd on my own in years. I have been losing weight and I naturally O'd 2 months in a row. What my RE told me was if I do not naturally O take a pregnancy test every other month and if its negative start taking the Provera to induce AF. Well, this past month I did not O. I have been tracking and temping and nothing happened. On CD35 I gave up and decided well I haven't O'd so i'm going to go ahead and start the Provera. Sure enough I O half way through my Provera. The annoying thing is due to being snowed in and bored we did BD on Thursday morning and I O'd sometime between Friday night and Saturday morning. So now I am so pissed cause that could have potentially been great timing but because of the Provera it doesn't matter. Right now I am pissed that I started the Provera sooner than I should have, but I do see the silver lining in all of this..... at least I did O naturally again!
Moral of the story, be patient and follow your REs directions.
