Hello
Thanks for your query.
After the Depo shot, some amount of irregular bleeding does occur for a month or two, but it may sometimes persist for upto 3 - 6 months.
If your symptoms do not resolve and you have trouble conceiving, please consult your gynecologist for evaluation of abnormal bleeding and reason for not getting pregnant.
Take care.
