Vaginal Bleeding, Taken Birth Control Injection. Worried

Hi,my name is Pamela im 28 yrs old. my problem is i have been bleeding(vaginal) since 21/08/2012. at first i thought i was reacting to the injection i got for prevention,but the doctor gave me some pills to stop the bleeding,soon as i finish the bleeding starts again. Although most of the time its just spotting or light,i am too worried because i am now pale.

HELLO PAMELA,
Well irregular spotting is sometimes seen in depot medroxy progesterone acetate injection taken for birth control. But i don't think you have to worry as such. These spotting may not be the cause of your anemia (paleness), and you should think of other causes for the same and take treatment.
If you are not really happy with the injections you can consult your doctor to change to other methods of birth control .Take care, bye.
