Depo-Provera is a
Depo-Provera is a highly-effective birth control injection administered by a doctor every three months. Depo-Provera is also called "the Shot."
During the first year of use about 1 out of 4 women stop having periods, and lack of periods increases with continued Depo-Provera use. Users of Depo-Provera may not have periods for a full year. Many women have menstrual irregularities, and this is one of the main reasons women stop using Depo-Provera. This is usually not considered a serious problem unless you are bleeding too much, but you should always let your doctor know about menstrual or bleeding problems.
Best of luck,
