Poss depo effect: This could be related i the Depo-Provera shot. 3 months is the dosing interval, but the effects can last past that 3 month period. Hopefully you have had your hsg to confirm successful essure. Follow up with your doctor if you haven't done this test.

Depo effect: Essure is a very reliable method of permanent birth control. Depo Provera (medroxyprogesterone) is a good choice for bc for the first 3 months after essure. Birth control is needed in the first 3 mos after essure in order to allow the tubes to close naturally. Depoprovera will alter your cycles even after the medication has "worn off". Cycle effects may last the 3 mos to slightly longer. It's expected. Remember the hsg.

Acceptable: This is a totally acceptable reaction to Depo-Provera provera (medroxyprogesterone). Your cycles may not resume immediately. If spotting is a concern talk to your md about putting you on some form of estrogen for about 21 days. This should help stop the spotting.
