A member asked:
I have been having vaginal bleeding for 4-5 weeks. i was on implanon for 18 months but am now on depo-provera shot 3, no insurance and scared? is this normal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Maybe normal: Most likely this bleeding is due to being on depoprovera. Implanon can do the same thing. The safest thing is to make sure you are not pregnant. A home pregnancy test can tell you this. Talk to the caregiver who is giving you the shots. They should be able to help.
