Question regarding menstrual cycle and medicine prescribed by my doctor for it

	Asked by Unregistered (Female; 39 ) on Sun 20, Jul 2008 12:17pm
	My doctor gave me provera to stop my period (I have been going since June 26th). I have been taking the med. for 6 days and it does not seem to be making a difference. How long should it take, should I go back to the doctor?
