What Causes Prolonged Vaginal Bleeding After Taking Depo Provera Shot?

I have been on depo provera shot for about 2 months now. I have not stopped bleeding for a month . My breast size have dramatically dropped . I m 35 and I ve never heard of this shot before. The dr said it would only last 3 months but I keep hearing horror stories. Since I m 35 I wanted to have children n now I may end up being sterile. She mentioned nothing of this to me. I asked her for the pill and she told me this was better . Is my body ever going to go back to normal? Like if I buy estrogen online will my body stop bleeding and breasts Grow back? I feel suicidal. I honestly do. I was about to take all my dads morphine just to stop these psychotic attacks and body disfigurement. I was so healthy before. I honestly don t want to live that s how devistated not to mention the bone loss I lost 2 teeth and I had perfect teeth.

Hello,

Please note that Depo Provera shot is for some duration and now do not repeat it. You can get an IUD device or implant which can be removed as per need. Now just wait for one month more. And just relax.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
