See your doctor.: It's not uncommon to bleed irregularly on Depo-Provera provera, especially during the first year of use. However, since you've been bleeding for about two months, it would be best to be evaluated in person. Since your last injection was over 12 weeks ago, you may want to consider restarting Depo Provera (medroxyprogesterone) or switching to another form of contraception.
