A member asked:
Why am i spotting/bleeding after 2+ years of being on the depo provera!
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Spotting: 57% of people experience spotting after 12 months on the hormone. 32 percent of people notice spotting after being on shot for 24 months. Fairly common. Depo Provera is a progesterone and it tends to thin the endometrium which causes the bleeding.
