Depo provera problem and excessive bleed

2017-12-14 18:49:58
HI I’m on the depo provera contraception injection and i’ve only had one 3 month dose. It was my first dose and I have been bleeding since the 29th of october and I am still blessing today which is the 14th of December. I am due my second shot/dose at the end of the month. Is it normal to be bleeding this long and when will it stop ? It’s affecting my sexual life

It's not normal to bleed persistently while on Depo. Get a scan done to assess uterus and pippele biopsy if not a hysteroscopy d&c. Get vaginal swabs to rule out infection. Consider a mirena coil instead of Depo.
