As an outsider, I am not in a position to give you individual medical advice on the basis of a brief description alone. I encourage you to make an appointment with your doctor, who will adjust the treatment according to your current clinical condition.
According to the manufacturer, Provera is a medicine used to treat the following conditions:
Secondary amenorrhea: A dose of 5-10 mg per day for 5-10 days, after which bleeding should occur within 3-7 days of discontinuation of the drug.
Functional (anovulatory) uterine bleeding due to hormonal imbalance: A dose of 5-10 mg per day for 5-10 days, given around day 16-21 of the cycle, after which bleeding should occur within 3-7 days after discontinuation of the drug.
Mild to moderate endometriosis: Dose 10 mg 3 times daily for 90 days.
In your case, given that you have been amenorrhea for 2 months, your doctor has most likely prescribed Provera to induce bleeding and assess the cause of secondary amenorrhea. This is not synonymous with illness or menopause. However, your doctor should explain to you in more detail the reason and the purpose of using this medicine.
The GdziePoLek.pl service also allows you to book the medicine at a selected stationary pharmacy and collect it after presenting a prescription:
