Why wait so long to start Provera?
I have PCOS and require assistance to get pregnant.
I'm currently on CD23 and was confirmed with a blood test on CD21 I didn't respond to 50mg of Clomid (days 5-9) which is what I got pregnant with the first time.
My progesterone was so low the doctor actually thought I didn't take the Clomid! She gave me Provera and told me to wait until CD35 to start taking it.
Why would I wait that long to start it?
I'd be on CD45 by the time the Provera kicked in. Maybe I'm feeling impatient because I'm upset but I don't see why I have to wait so long.
Thanks in advance.

Hi :) I also have PCOS and take provera (just finished yesterday!) and clomid. My doctor also told me if it didn't come naturally by CD35 to start taking it. I decided to go ahead and start on CD30...took it for my 10 days and my AF came today--just one day after finishing it. It's never come this early!! So while I don't know the real reason for waiting (I guess cause natural is better)--I say just take it when you want.
Just curious - what was your progesterone? Mine was .62 last cycle that I thought I ovulated--ha! I'm moving up to 100mg of clomid and iui this cycle.
