Started the Depo shot for the first time in July, I know irregular bleeding is a symptom but have had a light spotty period for about a month now and was wondering if this is normal or should make an appointment with my doctor ASAP? Thanks

Question

Answer

I heard some women just bleed when They are on Depo. I never had this much bleeding while on it but I know of someone that kept bleeding and didn't stay on it.

Answer

Yes, it’s normal. It’s part of the irregular bleeding side effect. That side effect can include longer time frames with or without bleeding, random bleeding, or frequent bleeding, at any given time. And, such irregular bleeding is especially common during the first 3-6 months while ur body is adjusting to the birth control.

Answer

Very normal. Depo is hell for your system, and it can mess you up for a long time

Answer

I bled for almost 3 months straight! I never took that stupid shot again!

Answer

I had to get off the depo after a year of straight bleeding.
