A member asked:

My doctor prescribe me to take a medroxyprogesterone to start my period after 6 months of not having any after bc could i get pregnant after this?

Not usually: The medication you are taking is to start your period, not help you get pregnant. However, if you are not using any contraception you could become pregnant at any time if you started ovulating.
