A member asked:
I have been bleeding for 3 weeks after my depo-provera shot 8 weeks ago. the continuous bleeding is seriously disturbing to me. any otc relief possible?

Side-effect: This is a common side-effect when starting Depo and should be better with the next shot. The NSAIDs like Ibuprofen and naproxen sometimes help some but not always. Sorry I can't be of more help.
