Question
I was put on provera (10mg for 10days). I finished those pills 2 weeks ago and still no period!!! I went for blood work to check my levels and my doc said they were fine (said my estrogen was at 200??) What else can help bring on a period? I'm supposed to start clomid and IUI as soon as I can get a period!!!!

Answer
Is it possible you're pregnant?  As long as you've got good estrogen levels, you should get a period after provera.  If you're not pregnant, then perhaps there is something keeping your period from coming (such as obstruction or abnormal uterine lining).  Your doctor can investigate this.
