Hi,

i was on provera for a while....It only induces a period...Does not help with ovulation. I was taking 1 pill for 10 days....2-3 days after my last pill I would get an af. I was also given clomid to induce ovulation with the provera, which I had to take after I would start an af. I didnt have any luck with that....Currently taking metformin...Seems to be working in regulating a cycle.

Good luck.

I have tried taking Provera as well 4 different times. The first 3 times nothing happened, 14 days ago I did get a light period for two days. I have been trying the ovulation tests the last two days and so far have not ovulated. Should I ovulate?
