How Can I Stop Premenstrual Bleeding?
Question: Hi, I started taking birth control on around the of last month 25 but stopped on thursday. I then was prescribed provera and was supposed to take it on friday to stop my period coming sunday. However, i noticed bleeding two days ago and thought that it was my period so i freaked out and took the provera in hopes that it would stop. I'm now thinking that it was only premenstrual bleeding and not my actual period. the last pill i took was yesterday 7pm of provera. I NEED MY PERIOD TO BE GONE BY FRIDAY IS THERE ANYTHING I CAN DO? I HAVE BOTH PORTIA BIRTH CONTROL AND PROVERA AVAILABLE
