What should I expect?

View More Posts Ignore
I am on cd41. I will be going in Monday for lab work so they can call in Provera. I am not pregnant and usually have 29 or 30 day cycles. I have never used Provera and am wondering what I should expect as far as side effects and how long it may take for AF to arrive.
Thanks!

" Ah good ol' Provera...ugh.

You will take it for either 5 or 10 days, depending on your physicians protocal. You may experience hot flashes and breast tenderness. Then upon completion between 3-5 days later a heavier than usual AF will begin. Good luck to you! "

" I went to CD50 and took Provera once. Like so much with IF effects vary greatly. For me I was really tired while I was on it. AF was really, really light. Good luck! "
