Anyone been prescribed 10mg of Provera for 7 days to start AF?

Question

My RE put me on 10mg of Provera for seven days to start my AF. I have never had any issues with my cycles, but did recently have a lap procedure in July, which could have delayed my cycle. From August 11th-14th I did have light spotting, but my RE said that wasn't AF. On August 18th, I started 10mg of Provera. I took my last pill this morning. Has anyone else been on Provera for seven days? Most ladies that have been on Provera to start their AF have been prescribed 10mg/10 days, so I was wondering why my RE would put me on for only seven days? Also, how soon after you stopped Provera did you have AF? Thanks a bunch!!!

Answer 1

My first time on provera i took it for 10 days and it took 11 days for it to come but my second time i took it 5 days twice a day and my period came three days later.So to answer your question i think the prescription depends on the doctor .Good luck honey

Answer 2

One cycle of it I started on day 8 of taking the pills and then the last time I took it, I didn't start until 2 days after the last pill.

Answer 3

I have taken this before. One time I started the day after the last pill and the next time it was almost a week.. So good luck to you

Answer 4

Don't worry provera "works", I thinks it only 5 to7 pills. Also your period are just a little irregular and I think you doctor is trying to get you back on track.. You will have your period soon. Take care
