I had one shot that lasted 3 months, took the shot in May was suppose to get another shot in August but i didn't, i didn't get my period until October, it has been pretty regular, heavy on the first 3 days then light for the last two, and yes the pain is a lot more intense.
Use DepoProvera
Depoprovera will not make you pregnant for months.
After the last shot of Depo Provera, it can take over 6 months for the drug to leave the body.But you should start another form of birth control after 6-12 weeks after your last shot.
The only way to end your period forever is to remove your uterus. A hysterectomy removes the uterus, thus stopping menstruation, but of course this means that you can no longer get pregnant.
Yes, it is rather painful. It is thought the older you are, the longer it will take to heal, so if you are an adult or even an OAP it will hurt for a longer period of time.
It can take up to three months for your period to return after stopping hormonal birth control such as depo provera or the pill. Any longer than this and you should talk to your doctor. Even if you do not have your period, you can still become pregnant so should take precautions if you are not trying to conceive.
no
Depending on the type of birth control and how long you were taking it before stopping it can take up to 18 months for your cycles to return to normal. I personally was on depoprovera for 2 years after my first child and after stopping did not menstruate for 13 months afterwords. Later I went back on depo for about a year and it took six months for my periods to begin again after stopping that time. If you are sexually active you should probably take a pregnancy test every two months until your periods begin again as you will ovulate about 2 weeks before your first period and could conceive at that time without realizing it.
It depends on how long you were on the shot and what your overall health is. The longer you were on the shot, the longer it will probably take for you to get your period again. Once you get your period, it may take several months to regulate itself again. Hang in there and thing should return to normal within 6-24 months.
Yes, stopping Depo Prover will affect your period. Some women may have spotting, and others may not get a regular period for up to 18 months. The average return to fertility is 11 months after stopping Depo Provera.
You can use anything you like - pads, tampons, cup -- with your period after stopping depo provera.
some women usually get their period a month to a couple months after stopping the mini pill. 1-3 months!!
