Default New To This

I Am 26 And Have Been Trying Ttc For Over 3 Years Now. I Miscarried April Last Year At 8 Weeks. Still Trying. I Finally Got A Diagnosis Of What Is Going On With My Body And It Is Pcos. They Now Have Me Taking Provera To Get My Mensus And Clomid To Help Me Ovulate. So I Guess My Question Is: Does Anyone Know How Long It Takes For The Provera To Work? The Dr. Gave Me A 10 Day Prescription And I Am On Day 4 Of Meds And Still No Mensus. Jsut Curious How Long It Takes.

They say not to expect to start until after the last pill is taken and it can take up to 14 days even then. I have had some months where I spotted within two days of starting the pills and I have also had occasions when the provera didn't work at all. Every person’s body is different so there is no way to predict when it will work.
Hang in there!

Another question: Did anyone have acne while taking the Provera. I have always had clear skin and now I am breaking out all over my face.

This is my first cycle of clomid and I am taking 50 mg on days 2-6. I don't know what to expect except for what I have read on here. I do know that I have been getting sparatic headaches, tender breasts and the acne is really bad. It's like connect the dots bad. YUCK........
