Provera to jumpstart period

Jamie
My partner and I are trying to conceive but I have no gotten my period since I went off the pill in March. I was on the pill for 12 years.  My doctor said if I don't get the pill by next Thursday she is going to put me on provera to start ovulation so I can start tracking. I was hoping people could give me some insight to your experiences, side effects, and hopefully happy endings ! Thanks.
