A member asked:
I got my first depo-provera injection in august, no period then, or in september, but i have been on my period since oct 5. is this normal?

No, but: It is common. When starting depo-provera, it's very common to have bleeding changes - these include not bleeding at all, bleeding at random times for random lengths of time, and bleeding constantly. If you continue to get depo-provera shots, most likely you will stop bleeding however. Good luck!
