Took provera, (medroxyprogesterone) got w/d bleed for4 days. 4 days later bleeding again. now 5th day and not getting lighter.how long should this last? period now?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
One week or longer.: Sometimes can last as long as a week. If the lining of the uterus was thick (due to missed periods) then bleeding can last longer as all that tissue sloughs off.
