A member asked:
When getting depo-provera out of system can you bleed for months?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See doctor: It can be common to have an irregular bleeding pattern when stopping any birth control, but at age 51 it would be wise to be seen by doctor to make sure there isn't something else going on there. You might need an ultrasound or endometrial biopsy.
