A member asked:

I want to ask is doctor precribe me provera (medroxyprogesterone) to bring my period back because i had irregular?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Common: That is a common practice. If your periods are always irregular, you may want to talk about something that will make them regular rather than just taking provera (medroxyprogesterone) when they dont come.
