A member asked:

I think i am having depo-provera provera (medroxyprogesterone) withdrawal symptoms how can i get my period back and get it out my body faster?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Hard to do this: Depo Provera (medroxyprogesterone) can tke a long time to leave your body. Good news is that those withdrawal symptoms will decrease and i hope you get your period back soon. That will help you to feel a lot better.
