A little history, 2yrs ago I had a month long period. Gyno put me on Provera it worked. I stopped taking it 3 months ago. In  July my period was to start on the 4th, it did not. It started on the24th. It has not stopped!! I went to the gyno on Aug 6, he did an internal ultrasound and said that my uterine wall was thick and I had a cyst on my left overy. he put me back on Provera for 12 days a month I have finished my 12 days of it, it slowed the bleeding down but did not stop it.  On the 15th  i started heavy again but if I count from the  start of the bleeding I should be on another period. I have another appointment with the gyno on Sept, 17. Should I give it time and see if it stops,take the Provera on days 1-12 or should I be worried? By the way I am 39, I asked about perimenopause he said no just DUB.

Hi mom-of-five2008 and welcome to the board.


I would probably go ahead with the provera as prescribed since you are seeing the doctor on the 17th of Sept.
