Is it normal to get 2 periods a month when getting off the depo-provera shot? i skipped my last shot 3 months ago
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Unfortunately, it's normal to have irregular bleeding on the depot Provera (medroxyprogesterone) shot and getting off it. Sometimes it can take up to 6 months after depot Provera (medroxyprogesterone) shot to have regular normal cycles. See your doctor if you're worried, but at 25 years of age, i'm guessing things should return to normal soon.
