Probably not: The Depo-Provera shot is usually given every 3 months, so no, I do not expect you to get the period within the next 3 months

Yes: Some women who use depoprovera have light bleeding or spotting. Some women have no bleeding. If you have bleeding that is greater than a normal menstrual period be seen by your physician or the urgent care. A depoprovera shot should be given every 3 months to prevent pregnancy.
