Depo-1mn+1/2. period now lasting ~3wks heavy, causing headache/tiredness. norm period 2/yr heavy. is it bad that its lasting so long and so heavy. ?

Heavy period on Depo: Almost anything goes with DepoProvera and periods. Periods can be long and heavy, especially in the first couple of shots. When a heavy period has a headache and fatigue that is new, blood counts should be checked. It is impossible to estimate your blood counts based just on length of period flow. So call the clinic where you get your Depo shots and they can check this out. Good Luck.
