A member asked:

When stopping depo-provera estradiol after 6 yr's for a blood clot, can it cause withdrawal and what are the symptoms?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Menopausal symptoms: Since Depo-Provera Estradiol is used to treat the classic symptoms of menopause (hot flushes, night sweats, sleeplessness, decreased libido, vaginal dryness, etc), these symptoms may return when you discontinue the drug.
