My doctor put me on Medroxyprogesterone (Provera) because of a hormone imbalance. I have too much estrogen. She also put me on it to stop the spotting I have. How long should it take for the bleeding to stop? Is this medication a good one to stop bleeding?

Provera is a pill form of the Depo Provera shot--it's not typically used for birth control because of the possibility of birth defects, so if you're sexually active and there's a possibility that you're ovulating, please do be careful! But I would hope that the bleeding would stop soon--your doctor may have a better estimate of how long to wait before expecting any kind of results.
Good luck, I hope it works for you!
