Jamie is right. If you don't ovulate on your own, you need a drug like clomid (clomiphene) or similar to help you ovulate. Provera basically just tricks your body into THINKING it ovulated and therefore bringing on a period each month, but unless it helps kick-start your cycles, it won't help you actually ovulate....and of course, if you don't ovulate, you won't get pregnant. So definitely ask your doctor about trying clomid. Best of luck with everything!

Thanx alot yea i will contact my doctor here and talk to him about it to. The pills they gave me is 10mg and they are for :: i link from web..

Provera is used for:
Treating certain menstrual problems (eg, abnormal bleeding, lack of menstrual period). It is used to decrease the risk of uterine cancer in certain women taking estrogen. It may also be used for otherconditions as determined by your doctor.

Provera is a progestin hormone. It works by altering the lining of the uterus.

Do NOT use Provera if:
you are allergic to any ingredient in Provera
you are pregnant or think you may be pregnant
you have undiagnosed abnormal vaginal bleeding
you have blood clots (eg, those in the lungs or legs) or a history of blood clots
you have known or suspected breast cancer or another estrogen- or progesterone-dependent cancer, or you have a history of breast cancer
you have a history of liver problems or liver disease
you have had a heart attack or stroke within the past 12 months
it is being used to test for pregnancy

I can tell that i wont get pregnant with it but i need to contact my doctor to sort it all out. Just hoping doctors in england are not as big assholes as in sweden :P
Just so frustrating to go thru doctor after doctor and never getting anywhere. thanx alot for your awser gave me some hope :)
