A member asked:
My girlfriend also has been having bleeding on depo does that me she's ovulating as well? her next dose is in september or does the bleeding just occur?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Occasional bleeding on "depo" occurs because estrogen production from the ovaries without ovulation does thicken the lining of the uterus, and bleeding can occur. Ovulation is not a regular event with "depo".
