Specializes in Obstetrics and Gynecology

Common: Provera (medroxyprogesterone) is an artificial or synthetic progesterone. It often leads to spotting and bleeding though usually not heavy. When you stop the medicine it is common to bleed thereafter again, though usually not heavily. Get assessed with an ultrasound if it persists as there may be other structural problems like polyps or fibroids inside the cavity of the uterus.
