Spotting: Depo provera, (medroxyprogesterone) or the birth control shot, is known for causing irregular bleeding and spotting. Bleeding after you get off this method may continue for many months. If you are able to take the pill, it is one option that will control your bleeding. See your gynecologist. She or he may have the best answer for you.
