Hi I am Dr. Marc Sklar, The Fertility Expert and welcome to my channel, Fertility TV where I share tips and tricks for improving your fertility… and get pregnant fast! provera does cause pregnancy. i lost 4 babies within 2 years then i couldnt get pregnant at all for 2 more years, my doctor put me on provera because of problems with my period and all of a sudden i was pregnant i had my 1st baby. it causes you to ovulate but it can also help your body hold on to the prenancy or atleast thats what i was told by my doctor. The medicine affects the lining of the uterus in such a way that even if you ovulate a pregnancy is unlikely to implant and grow in the uterus. However, it is still possible to become pregnant just very unlikely. Doctors give unbiased, trusted information on whether Medroxyprogesterone can cause or treat Pregnancy: Dr. Rao on can i become pregnant while taking medroxyprogesterone: Escitalopram is distributed in the amniotic fluid - limited data. Nonteratogenic effects in the newborn following ssri exposure late in the third trimester include respiratory distress, cyanosis, apnea, seizures, temperature. I have always had irregular periods but never thought anything of it until recently when my period was a week long and then would come throughout the day for another four days after. Hi, Welcome to ehealthforum, Pregnancy on Medroxyprogesterone is rare. It inhibits pregnancy in high doses. If the medication was given to you to induce withdrawal bleeding, then the sexual intercourse while being on treatment may not result in pregnancy. You should not use medroxyprogesterone if you are pregnant, or if you have liver disease, a hormone-related cancer such as breast or uterine cancer, a history of stroke or blood clot, or abnormal vaginal bleeding that has not been checked by a doctor. Okay, so here is my story. I went off birth control in Feb. to try to get pregnant. I had a period in April and another in July. My dr. put me on Medroxyprogesterone (this is not the birth control shot)for 7 days to induce my period. It is possible to get pregnant while on this med as unlike birth control pills that stop you from ovulating or producing eggs in order for you to ovulate this med helps you ovulate so you may very well become pregnant while on this med or after taking it! What should I discuss with my healthcare provider before taking Provera (medroxyprogesterone)? Medroxyprogesterone can cause birth defects. Do not use if this medicine you are pregnant.
