I will give you some information that will explain everything so that you finally know what exactly is going on.

Depo and the mirena iud both have the same type of hormones. I have used the mirena iud...I am giving you this story for comparison.

So, there are 3 things that depo can do.. Many women say "oh yeah, I never ever have a period with depo!" some women say "well I did not noice any chnage at all, sure wish my period would go away.

Women like you and I react differently to the hormone.. It causes us to bleed every single day.

The hormone causes your uterine lining to thin out, which causes many women to lose their periods. For some women, it become so thin that it is like an open wound, they basically bleed everyday.

This is what is happening. Depo may not be the best method for you.. :/

I was on the depo shot right after I had my son, I think I got the shot twice and I was on my period for like 6 months straight......Maybe a few days here and there I wouldnt bleed but that would only be a day or two then I would have my period again........I personally did not like the depo shot.....I prefer the pill.

What your experiencing is exactly what happened to me. It was my first time using a birth control, after that, I almost never used any again. When I was 18 I used it, I had two shots. The first shot was fine, I gained some weight that was about it. The 2nd shot was horrible, I bled for three months straight. Absolutley horrible. What's the point of being on birth control if your going to bleed the whole time? What I was told (by my new gyno) that depo provera is progesterone only. That's why you bleed so much. If I were you, I would switch to a pill. Yes you have to take it everyday but at least you won't bleed like that...I have been off of depo for 4 years now and still suffer from decreased libido...It never fully returns get used to ky jelly!!!

Best of luck

Crazyness..The reason why you may continue to have libido problems is because pretty much all hormonal brith control causes loss of libido!

Any pill, patch, or ring you may use will cause loss of libido.

Iud's and non hormonal methods can bring your libido back-if you are interesed.

I had the shot two days after I had my daughter. She is now three months old and I am still bleeding. Its not just spotting. It's like a heavy period. I called the hospital and they told me everything was fine. It has gave me horrible cramps and I even get migrains like every other day. Three weeks after I had it I stopped lactating. I would strongly suggest not ever getting this shot and sticking to the pill. It's not worth it!!!!!

i've had my depo for a while now. i was standing up, not feeling any pain at all and blood started pouring down my legs. i have had a past of cysts and i'm worried that they might be back. i went to the doctor and they checked my blood count, and it was fine. but didn't do any test to see if my cysts was back

I have been on the depo shot for a while now. Close to a year. I have been spotting for the past couple months, but nothing extreme. I have had some cysts to bust in the past and i am afraid they might be back. i went to the doctor and they done some blood work and that's it. they didn't check for nothing else. i told them that i was afraid a cyst might be back. but i didnt feel any pain when it happenend. right now, my lower back is hurting really bad and I am feeling very week. what might be wrong with me?
