Going through the same thing. From what I've read it's normal. It can take months for you to regain a normal menstrual cycle.

Can you get pregnant if you're on Depo-Provera and don't get a period?
I hate bleeding for 6 weeks on my first shot but my second one only had light spotting to none, it varies. Periods while on the depo provera, (whether u have them or not) has nothing to do with you being pregnant.
Do you have periods twice in one month while on Depo-Provera?
I believe you can have a period twicw a month while on the shot. I believe the shot can upset your periods in many different ways. I have been off the shot for almost 10 yrs. now and still have a period every 2 weeks and my periods used to be like clockwork. I only took the shot for about 1 year. I don't trust the Depo Provera shot and would not do it.
Why would you have periods every two weeks when you have been off Depo-provera shot for about nine months?
i was on the shot for 6yrs. w/no period. after i stopped doing the shot it took about nine months for it to return, only to have the same problem. every two weeks i get a period. not fun! so i am looking for an answer too
Do you still get your period while on the depo shot?
I've been on depo shot for 3 years and I never have periods but it's not the same for everyone however it is common for a lot of people to stop having periods when they are using depo. Sorry if I'm kinda lurching onto this person's answer.. I'm 15 and taken the shot since January 2011. I've had some blood still but it's a very small amount. I'm not sure if it's a good thing or not so I'm just telling you that if it happens to you, you're not the only one.
I never had my period while on the depo shot i havent had a shot in over 3 months and my period still hasn't returned should i be worried?
The DEPO is notorious for problems with the menustration & hormonal imbalances. I would recommend you see your doctor & have a blood test performed to rule out a hormonal imbalance. If this is normal then the only thing you can do is have a ultrasound performed to make sure nothing is going on with your reproductive system & if THIS is normal then its a waiting game unfortunately.
Is it bad if you don't get your period while your on the depo shot?
If you are not on your period when you get the depo shot nothing will happen but you will have to use condoms for seven days after you get the shot to help prevent pregnancy ....depo provera only works immediately when you are on your period
Can you only get pegnaunt when you are on your period?
You can get pregnant any time you have unprotected sex. It is less likely when you are on your period, but it is still possible. Pregnancy is most likely 1-2 weeks before your period.
When do periods restart after finishing Depo Provera?
I only had one Depo shot. I was due for another in early December 07 but decided not to get the shot when it was due after bleeding for four weeks in November on the shot. It is now March 08 and I am still waiting for my period to arrive. I called my doctor and he said that it can take several months to get your period again even after one shot. Everyone is different but I did not expect for it to take so long to start my period again after just one shot - but that's not a bad thing - the whole reason I tried Depo was to try to stop my period - which didn't work out well at first given I had a pretty regular four week period in the middle of the shot. This isn't really an answers to your question but just another case of no periods after depo provera. My last shot was Feburary 2008, it should have worn off may 08... Its not Septermber 09... that's 16 months and I still have not seen my period... I had the shot 3 times.. Bad choice :S I don't want babies now, but maybe in my later years, I want my periods back :(
What does it means when your on your period and blood only shows when you wipe even though I just had a period 2 weeks ago?
When you see blood that shows up only when you wipe after your period had ended 2 weeks ago it is not cause for alarm. It is likely a new egg being released into your body or leftover blood from the previous period that had not escaped yet.
Is it normal to have a very painful period after coming off of depo if you only got the depo shot 1 time?
I have the same problem. I had 2 depo shots and bled the entire time. My last shot was due a month ago and have been suffering ever since. Still bleeding, horrifying cramps and abdominal pain. Lately I have been experiencing dizziness as well. I can't wait until this is out of my system!
What is wrong if you have been off depo for 9 months and for a while had light periods every other week and now had a regular period but still had light pink blood after the period?
If you have been having sex without a condom or another form of birth control since you stopped the Depo 3 months ago, then YES, you can be pregnant. Your light pink bleeding may be the beginning of your period as well. After stoppimg Depo, your period may be irregular for a few months. If you have not been sexually active in the time you stopped your Depo, there is no risk of pregenacy. If you have been sexually active and are worried about being pregnant, you should have a pregnancy test. If you are having sex and not using birth control, please contact your local family planning clinic or Health Department.
I only had one shot of Depo-Provera and my cycle is still not normal?
Um i am having the same prob. I think. I got the depo shot in November was suppost to go back and get 2nd on First week of Feb. but decided i didnt like the shot so never went. I got my period Feb. 3-8 and its now March 17 and i havent got it since. I was worried about being pregnant but if i was i would be 3 weeks by now and i took a preg. test yesterday which came out neg. and two others earlier in the week which were also neg. so i was wondering if it could be from the depo shot?
