Is Deviry 10 mg safe for my daughter, who has irregular periods from PCOD, if she previously developed a blood clot (DVT) in 2012 while taking Ovral-L?
It may reassure you to know that Deviry (medroxyprogesterone acetate) is a progestogen-only medication, which generally carries a much lower risk of blood clots than estrogen-containing options like Ovral-L. However, because of her medical history, it is incredibly important to consult her gynecologist or hematologist before starting any hormonal therapy. They can thoroughly evaluate her current health to ensure Deviry is the safest choice for managing her PCOD.
