can taking provera bring on hot flashes?

I was having excess bleeding, my doctor said my lining was too thick. I'm to take provera for the next three months- 10 days each month. After taking my first dosage, it seems like I started having hot flashes and feeling bad. First 2 days of period were heavy, having to change pads every 2 hrs.
