Provera Help

Do any of the PCOS girls here take provera to get a period?  We're on a break right now, so I am suppose to take 5mg of provera for 12 days after every 6 weeks of not having a period and a negative pregnancy test. 

 I took my pills during the middle of July and got my period on July 20th.  It lasted about 5 days with one day of heavy flow.  I just got my period again yesterday unmedicated.  I don't ovulate or get my period on my own.  Could it be that I finally got my period on my own?  I have been doing acupuncture and have lost about 20 lbs.  Any help or insight would be greatly appreciated.  :-)

    Sounds to me like you did, and you prob did O too.  My old RE would only use Provera after 60 days and I needed a blood test first....It is bad to take if you are pg....as I found out in Jan.  I had a neg pg/O blood test so I took 5 days of Provera and nothing happened, then I took a HPT and it was + for a few days, the AF came :(  I'm sure the Provera made me shed my implanted embie.  Anyway, my new RE does not like to use Provera at all, he will do bw to check if I am close to O.
