What Causes Irregular Periods After Taking Depo Shot?

I ve been on the depo injection for 4&1/2 years, never bled once from the first injection! I have it every 10 weeks as I normally bleed continually for the last 2 weeks, in the last 4 weeks I ve had 2 periods!! Is my body telling me I should have a break now? Or is there something wrong?? Thanks

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, taking hormone for such long time without any disease may cause the bad side effects not just the irregular menses but it may cause the systemic changes too, better to stop this, and get done the ultrasonography test for safe side hope this information helps.
I find this answer helpful
