Hello,

Bleeding is likely because you were a week late to get the shot. Irregular bleeding is an expected side effect of Depo shot. The bleeding will subside in a few days.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Lekshmi Rita Venugopal, General & Family Physician
