so confused
Medroxyprogesterone is used to treat abnormal uterine bleeding, promote menstrual cycles, and to treat symptoms of the menopause. Progestins are responsible for changes in the mucus and inner lining of the uterus (endometrium) during the second half (secretory phase) of the menstrual cycle. Progestins prepare the endometrium for implantation of the embryo, and once an embryo implants in the endometrium, i.e., pregnancy occurs, progestins help maintain the pregnancy. At high doses, progestins also prevent ovulation (release of the egg from the ovary). Progestins were first isolated in 1933, and progesterone itself was synthesized in the 1940s.

taking provera
I got off the pill in June 04 and have had 3 periods all of which have been forced by taking provera. My doc has also put me on fremera twice to ovulate and nothing happened. This time I am taking provera and Clomid afterwards. In the meantime, I've been taking metformin to increase my progesterone level (I'm taking it 3 times a day!, per doctor orders). I few questions I have:
1) I've been cramping worse than ever on provera this time. Is this ovulation?
2) Does Provera make you ovulate, or do I have to take Clomid or Fremera?
3) Does Clomid increase your chances of multiple eggs being released? my husband is freaking out about this part.
