A member asked:

What risks are there if your taking provera (medroxyprogesterone) 10 mg if your pregnant but not enough hormones to show positive on a urine pregnancy test ?

Specializes in American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology

Probably none: The Progesterone is not likely to have a negative impact on a pregnancy. Some physicians prescribe supplemental Progesterone to their pregnant patients to help maintain the pregnancy.
