Since the bleeding continues and your ultrasound shows an endometrial thickness of 12 mm, the next reassuring step is to look a bit closer at the lining of your uterus. Your doctor will likely recommend an endometrial biopsy, which is a simple, quick in-office procedure to sample the tissue. They might also suggest a hysteroscopy?using a tiny camera to look inside?or a dilation and curettage (D&C). These steps help us find the exact cause, such as a benign polyp.

Deviry (medroxyprogesterone acetate) is not designed or effective as an emergency contraceptive. For emergency prevention, specific medications like levonorgestrel are typically used. Since you are experiencing a delayed period after previous emergency contraceptive use, please know this is a common side effect of those hormones. I gently recommend taking a home pregnancy test first to be sure. If it is negative, your cycle should return to normal soon. If your period is delayed by more than a week, it is best to consult your healthcare provider.

Taking the i-pill (levonorgestrel) and Deviry (medroxyprogesterone) on the same day is safe and will not cause dangerous interactions. However, since both are progestin hormones, taking them together can cause temporary hormonal confusion. This combination will likely affect your period, potentially causing irregular spotting or delaying your cycle. To ensure your PCOS treatment with Deviry works effectively, it is often best to delay starting it until after your next period. I highly recommend discussing this with your gynecologist to safely adjust your schedule.

Deviry (which contains medroxyprogesterone acetate) can sometimes cause temporary hair thinning or loss due to hormonal fluctuations. This is a known but relatively uncommon side effect. Typically, this shedding is temporary and resolves once your body adjusts to the medication or after you stop taking it. Please do not worry. I highly recommend discussing this with your doctor, who can monitor your progress and ensure this is the best option for regulating your cycles.

Prolonged or irregular bleeding despite taking medroxyprogesterone can occur due to hormonal imbalance, uterine causes like fibroids or polyps, thyroid issues, or other underlying gynaecological conditions. Since your bleeding has continued for 15 days with only partial relief, it is important to consult your gynaecologist again for reassessment. You may need further evaluation, such as an ultrasound or blood tests, to find the exact cause and adjust treatment accordingly. Do not stop or change the medicine on your own. Seek medical care promptly, especially if bleeding increases, you feel weak, dizzy, or develop other symptoms.

While Deviry (medroxyprogesterone acetate) is used to induce a period, you should not take it again this month without consulting your doctor first. It is highly important to rule out pregnancy and find the root cause of your delayed cycle before repeating treatment. When taken, common side effects can include bloating, breast tenderness, headaches, mild mood changes, or irregular spotting. These symptoms are usually temporary and mild. Please reach out to your healthcare provider to safely guide your next steps.
