I've been on depo-provera for 6 months and have had continuous bleeding, my doctor gave me estrogen in january to take daily but bleeding started back, so?

Exam and US?: Have you had a genital exam, pelvic us and laboratory evaluation before the treatment started? Vaginal bleeding/ spotting can be caused by different problems.
