Why do I have heavy bleeding while on the depo- provera shot?

Home More advice Health

I have been on the depo-provera shot for about two years now. After being on it for a year and a half, I began having heavy bleeding, which lasted for two weeks straight.it was so bad that I almost passed out a couple times from losing too much blood.when I went to the doctor, he switched me to the pill.I couldn't remember to take it everyday so he later switched me back to the depo shot.I have been back on it for two months now and today I started bleeding again. Any advice or stories?
