Medroxyprogesterone and side effects
0 Replies
mrspaj - October 24

so i'm on 5 days worth of Medroxyprogesterone (i think the brand name is provera?) to bring on a period following lupron (a blood test showed that after 2 months from my last shot there was still no estrogen in my system and therefore no sign of it wearing off anytime soon)

today is day 3 and i'm in a lot of pain for the first time since i went back on another three months of lupron....i'm trying not to call the Dr b/c i figure the pain means the pills are working and i'll get my period (Dr said i should get it the day after my last pill)...but i'm also insatiably hungry - another estrogren/period coming side effect? i'm thinking of taking one of my vicodins even though i really don't want to...has anyone else tried thermacare menstrual pads? i love them but i seem to not be able to feel heat on my lower stomach as my skin always looks really really pink afterwards...

has anyone taken this? did your period start like it should??

thank you in advance!!
