Hi,
Provera tablets are basically made of progesterone and they are used to initiate bleeding, so if your daughter wants to stop the bleeding than choosing this medicine without gynecologist prescription is not right.
Also she is already taking Marvelon which contains estrogen and progesterone both. She should continue Marvalen tablets and can use Mafenemic tablets for relieving pain. Also, she should get her pelvic ultrasound done for endometriosis.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
