21 Year Old, Irregular Periods, Heavy Bleeding. Taken Depo Shot, Got Reacted. Remedy?
I am twenty years old & cannot seem to get a regular period. Last April (2012) I received the depo shot. I reacted to it & had heavy bleeding for five weeks so I was taken off of it. Since then I have been on four different pills and now the patch. I bleed every two weeks and every time really heavy. I have seen multiple doctors and they all say break through bleeding.

Hello, I would be happy to help you with your question.
It sounds like you need another opinion wth another OB/GYN. I know that this is frustrating, but there might be an explanation, such as a uterine polyp, that can be discerned using an ultrasound called a 'sonohysterogram'. Also, you could ask them about a new IUD on the market called Skyla.
I hope that this helps and good luck!
