Provera Tablets

[Jaffaz]

My OB has put me on Provera as i am still having a small amount of bleeding 6.5 weeks after giving birth. I googled Provera and it seems to be used to bring on periods however my OB gave it to me to stop bleeding??

Can anyone clarify for me or have you been on Provera and what side effets did you have? So far I have had cramping, like period pain. And breast tenderness, I'm having to feed 2hrly because it's so painful if they get too full.

I'm very confused, can I expect my period once I stop taking the tablets (12 day course)?? I am also getting an US in 2 weeks to check for any retained products.

Thanks Jaf.
