What Is Medroxyprogesterone 2.5mg?
Medroxyprogesterone is a synthetic form of the hormone progesterone, sold under the brand name Provera. It works by helping regulate the lining of the uterus (endometrium) when the body's natural hormone balance is disrupted. Doctors prescribe medroxyprogesterone tablets to restore menstrual periods that have stopped, to manage abnormal uterine bleeding, and to protect the uterine lining in postmenopausal women using estrogen therapy. It is available by prescription only and is taken by mouth as directed by your provider.
