Meprate (medroxyprogesterone) is designed to trigger a withdrawal bleed after you finish the medication. You should expect your period to start about 2 to 10 days after completing the full 5-day course, not while you are still taking it. Since your blood pregnancy test was negative, you do not need to repeat it now, as these tests are highly reliable. Please complete your remaining two doses. If your period does not arrive within 10 days of finishing the medicine, consult your gynecologist for a follow-up.
