Q: is having a heavy period after provera 10 mg a definitive sign of not being pregnant? had bloodwork on the 2nd day of the period that showed 0.84 ng/ml in progesterone?

: "Provera 10 mg" is given usually to cause withdrawal bleeding when menstruation is delayed, but bleeding after a series of Provera orally can also be occurring with pregnancy outside the uterus (ectopic). Obtain a serum HCG to be certain about pregnancy, as the bleeding may not be from withdrawal to Provera.
