Hello,
Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum.
Medroxyprogesterone is the ingredient of PROVERA .
In your case as you were a patient of uterine cancer in July 9 early).
This is uses as a palliative treatment in endometrial cancer.
Dose is 200- 600 mg. depending upon the nature, type and stage of cancer.
So your doctors are going on right path.
Take is regularly and remains in contacts with your treating doctors.
Good luck. 'Dr. HET
