Can gelatin stop the spotting for a while while your on the depo-provera shot?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: It is very common to have breakthrough bleeding on the Depo-Provera shot. This should go away over time. Ask your doctor about whether you should be seen, or ask about a short course of a low dose Progesterone pill.
