A member asked:

Missed 4 doses of provera (medroxyprogesterone). took it to stop bleeding. i restarted (aiming to take the 10) what should i look out for?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Nothing particular: Stopping bleeding is the goal. If u missed some pills it is of little significance unless u are anemic and kept bleeding; just resume tem, when u stop hopefully you will have an orderly bleed, shedding of the uterine lining; this may be a good cance to start the pill once u have withdrawel bleed. Good luck.
