Hi, i am on the depo-provera proverb shot and had my first one 2 months ago and i haven't had a period since, is this normal ? thanks

Depo and menses: The Depo-Provera shot makes the lining thin and is a hormone injection that lasts up to 3 months. If you aren't having any other symptoms, you shouldn't worry. However, i would monitor your cycles and tell your doctor if it persists.
