Hi all,

Havent posted in a while. My consultant has switched me onto provera. Has anyone had this and can give any advice? Also did anyone switch straight from one pill to it without a break in the cycle?

Thank you in advance xx

Thanks for the reply. I don’t know if to see how I get on with it for a few more weeks. Might have to go back on pill but don’t want to do that. Seen as I want to have a baby but after a year of TTC the gynae said this isn’t possible with my endo and pain :(

I was terrible on it - felt really unwell. I continued on it until next OPA and he told me I was mad for continuing! I switched from one to the other with no gap!
