    Provera is a prescription medication which contains medroxyprogesterone, a type of hormone known as a progestin. It is commonly used to treat conditions like irregular menstruation, abnormal uterine bleeding or amenorrhea (absence of menstruation) as it mimics the effects of natural progesterone. Provera is also used in combination with other hormones as part of hormone replacement therapy during menopause. It helps to prevent overgrowth of the uterine lining and reduces the risk of uterine or endometrial cancer.
