Your friend's severe dizziness is due to her hemoglobin being critically low at 7, meaning her body isn't getting enough oxygen. Since she is vomiting, she cannot absorb her Feroglobin B12 or Deviry (medroxyprogesterone acetate), and dehydration is worsening her symptoms. Three days is also not enough time for these medications to raise her blood levels. Because she cannot keep fluids down and has symptomatic severe anemia, please take her to the nearest emergency room immediately. They can safely administer intravenous fluids, anti-nausea medication, and evaluate her need for a blood transfusion to help her recover quickly.

Managing your weight with PCOS while taking Deviry (medroxyprogesterone) can certainly feel challenging, but please be gentle with yourself. Since PCOS often causes insulin resistance, focusing on a balanced, low-glycemic diet rich in fiber and lean proteins can make a big change. Combining this with regular, enjoyable physical activity?especially a mix of strength training and cardiovascular exercise?helps improve your metabolism. Staying hydrated, prioritizing good sleep, and managing stress also play key roles in balancing your hormones. It is always a good idea to discuss these struggles with your doctor, who can check your insulin levels and help tailor a personalized plan.

After finishing a course of Deviry (medroxyprogesterone acetate), it typically takes about 3 to 7 days for your period to begin, though it can sometimes take up to 10 to 14 days. Since it has only been 72 hours, your body just needs a little more time to respond to the hormonal shift. I recommend waiting for up to 10 days. If your period still hasn't started by then, please take a pregnancy test as a precaution and reach out to your gynecologist for further guidance.

After finishing a five-day course of Deviry (medroxyprogesterone acetate), your period typically starts within 3 to 7 days. However, it can sometimes take up to 10 to 14 days for the bleeding to begin as your body adjusts to the hormonal changes. Try to remain relaxed, as stress can also influence your cycle. If your period does not start within two weeks of completing the medication, please reach out to your healthcare provider for a gentle follow-up evaluation.

Please be reassured, but yes, there is a risk of pregnancy. Deviry (medroxyprogesterone acetate) helps regulate your cycle, but it does not act as a contraceptive. Since you had unprotected sex, pregnancy is possible. Withdrawal bleeding typically starts 3 to 10 days after finishing Deviry. Because your bleeding has not started yet, you might want to consider taking emergency contraception as soon as possible, as it is most effective when taken early. If your bleeding does not start in the next few days, or to be sure, please take a pregnancy test in 14 days. We recommend consulting your gynecologist for guidance.

Since you need Deviry (medroxyprogesterone) to induce your periods, it suggests you may not be ovulating regularly, even if your hormone tests and thyroid levels (managed by Thyronorm) appear normal. Sometimes, subtle ovulation issues or conditions like atypical polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) can prevent egg release. Because your husband's tests are normal, focusing on tracking or gently stimulating ovulation is often the next step. I highly recommend discussing ovulation induction options with your fertility specialist to help you safely achieve your dream of pregnancy.
