A member asked:
I have been having a cycle for almost 2 months. i take birth control. i have taken 10 mg of provera (medroxyprogesterone) for 4 days this week and still bleeding?

Breakthrough bleed: Sounds like breakthrough bleeding which occurs when you have bleeding at unscheduled times while on the pill. Often things get back to normal the next cycle. If not then schedule a visit to discuss changing brands or changing birth control methods. This is very common. Other than being annoying it is not dangerous.
