Maybe: Wish i had a great answer but hormonal changes bring many results.I recommend you use caution until your periods stabilize.I expect that soon.

Depoprovera: Yes taylor, it is normal not to have a period for up to 6 months after your last depoprovera injection is given. I have seen up to one year. Just keep taking your pills as usual for contraception.
