DEPO PROVERA SHOt
Hello
I took Depo Provera shot on 10th February. My period was supposed to come on 28th Feb. But till date it hasn't come.
Does Depo shot delay period? Or stops period? I'm in total confusion as I'm extensively travelling tomorrow onwards and want my next period to stop.

It is due to depo provera. It can lead to absence of cycles or irregular bleeding. However it will act as a effective contraceptive for 3 months.
