A member asked:
Should i be bleeding continuously (6 weeks on and off) since depo provera, received 6 weeks after giving birth via c-section?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depo effect: Irregular periods are the norm on depoprovera. Many patients have no periods at all. Others will experience irregular menstrual bleeding. This is how Depo-Provera works. If you are not satisfied with the bleeding pattern on Depo-Provera then consider using a different birth control method.
