Supposed to get my second shot of depo-provera tomorrow, but i have been having heavy bleeding for the past 21 days. should i get the second shot, or stop ?

You can get another: Yes, you can get another shot in order to continue protection from unwanted pregnancy. However, you should talk to your doctor about ways to slow down or stop the bleeding. Some women experience irregular bleeding for a while after getting started on Depo-Provera injections but most of them they will go away eventually.
