I started the depo estradiol 5mg/ml 2 months now and I have had spotting the last 2 days the 4th im suppose to take the shot again but now im worried as I have not had a period for about 7 years is this normal or should I just call and just go in and see my doctor
Hello dear,welcome to Ask a doctor service. I reviewed your query and here is my advice.
The spotting is side effect of depo shot. Also absence of period is a side effect too. Talk to your doctor if they bother you and for other options of contraception.
Hope I have answered the question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
