Oing while on Provera

Hi all, looking for some advice.

I started taking Provera about a week ago to jumpstart my period, since it's been over 2 months since I went off the BCP and still haven't had one. Anyway, my temp has risen in the past few days and now FF is saying I o'd.

My question is: did I really O or is the temp rise solely due to provera? I've been all over google on this and think the answer is that it is PROBABLY due to Provera (b/c it is a synthetic form of progesterone which mimics the real thing, making your BBT rise just like it normally would in the luteal phase, which signals to your body not to release "another" egg and hence preventing O) but that if you take Provera in low doses it is still possible to O.

Basically, it seems either could be the case. I could be totally wrong though and would love to know if anyone has any experiences on this. I may call my doctor and see what they say too. Thanks.

  • I'd call your doctor but based on the fact that your cycle is well into the 70 day range I would tend to think that you didn't O but rather that Provera has elevated your temperatures.?

  • if you take away the WCM then FF will take away your O date. i definitely dont think you o'd...imo.

  • Since provera is progesterone, so it will make your temp rise.  If you look at my chart below, check out my last cycle.  It was annovulatory, but FF gave me crosshairs when the provera made my temp go up.  Good luck!
