Hi all. I've been lurking around here for a few months and finally decided to post. My DH and I have been married a little over two years and have decided to start TTC. I stopped BCP at the end of June after being on them for 10 years. I have yet to have a period. Saw my GYN and she recommended that I take Provera in December to induce a bleed. While this is my next step, and I've accepted that (...kinda) a part of me just wishes my body would wake up and start a period on it's own. Ehh.
Any advice from those of you who have taken this med while TTC? It's my understanding that while Provera will induce a bleed, it won't necessarily jumpstart my body into ovulating on my own.
Re: Hoping for AF!!!
Hi, i am just lurking too and usually post on TTTC. However, I used it, but as you mentioned, it never got me to ovulate, so i had to take different meds for that. My doc had already confirmed no O based on my long cycles. Hopefully as you said, this will "jump start" you're system and no further action needed. I would buy some OPKs so you can test to see if/when you're ovulating and your doc can also order blood work or schedule an ultrasound to confirm. GL!
