Hello,
Menstrual disturbances are an associated feature of depo usage. The drug is supposed to stay effective in the body for 12 weeks. Pregnancy may be delayed by 6 months to one year after the last injection. Oestrogen containing tablets are used to treat the menstrual irregularities. I advice you to see your gynaecologist for further treatment. Wish you good luck.
