My period has been on for a whole month now. i recently received the depo-provera shot but i don't know what to do. it won't go away. ?

See your Doctor: It is likely the result of the hormone in the progesterone shot. It often causes bleeding, but it should not last one month. See your primary care physician or OBGYN to adjust your hormones and prevent further bleeding and complications.
