I haven't had any issues with the provera that I am taking. I also started the protocol a few days ago. Hope taking the prometrium at night helps you!

Spark take it at night before you go to bed, prometrium helps you get the sleep you need and rest your body needs to lactate.

Does anyone know if it is normal to have a period while taking the Provera? I was surprised to start mine (I have been on the Provera for 2 weeks now). I guess that I thought it would be like the BCPs.

Kim,

I think break through bleeding is normal, I used to get that when I started bcps for endometriosis, and you didn't start them when you normally ovulate. How are you doing on the provera? I finally started seeing changes, and my breast are starting to hurt after I realized that doing things on my own was ruining the protocol. I thought that if I took the herbs and goats rue while doing the protocol would make things speed up. I emailed lenore and she said not to take the goat rue bc it a phytoestrogen. Patience wins the race, but yeah that is kind of weird that you got your period, because I didn't get mine at all, which is kind of nice to get a break from the pain. I'm sure someone else will come on here and let you know! Good Luck

I'm doing great other than the bleeding. No side effects other than the sore breasts, which means changes are happening! I know what you mean about the patience...I am eager to be done with the Provera and to move on to pumping and storing. We had our homevisit with the adoption agency. Just have to finish our portfolio, and the wait for a baby can begin.

I'm so happy for you, its the greatest feeling in the world to be a mom. I am so ready to be done with these bcps too, but I think bc I did it wrong I'm going to have to be on them longer. I hope everything goes well with the adoption agency, and you get your bundle of joy soon. I'm praying for you, and wish you the best of luck. What adoption agency are you going through, just curious for future references? I want my son more than anything to have a little sibling. My son was just gift from God that happened, that wasn't supposed, but after what happened Im terrified of ever going through it again.

We are going through a small local agency. It is called Swartz. They only do about 10 adoptions a year. We believe that God is leading us to adopt and that it will happen in His timing, so we are comfortable going with a smaller agency. We have three boys, so we are hoping for a little girl!
