What Causes Prolonged Vaginal Bleeding And Spotting After Having Depo Shot?

Hello, I took depoprovera shot back in August 2014 and repeated a shot in November 2014. Since September 2014 I have been bleeding, spotting non stop. Is there anything I can do to stop the bleeding. I cannot take any estrogen due to smoking but is there anything else I can do or am I stock until the shot wears off.
