A member asked:
I started the depo-provera shot about 3 months ago this week, and about a month and a half ago i began spotting and cramping every day. is this normal?

DEPO: No. It is not normal. Often the first shot is not enough to fully protect you. You should have gone back to the gynecologist's weeks ago.
