Maybe: When you take Depo-Provera provers, even though the medicine is supposed to work for only 3 months, it can affect your periods for up to 9-12 months after each shot. And often it can cause constant or very irregular bleeding. So you would need to consult a specialist to make sure nothing else is causing the bleeding and to try to help control things until the effects of Depo-Provera are gone!
