Depot: provera (medroxyprogesterone) can cause you to stop menstruating. But, dont worry, this is normal. The high progesterone only medicine is known for this.

Normal depo effect: Irregular periods are the norm on depoprovera. Many patients have no periods at all. Others will experience irregular menstrual bleeding. This is how Depo-Provera works. If you are not satisfied with the bleeding pattern on Depo-Provera then consider using a different birth control method.
