4 weeks into my 3rd depo and I am bleeding heavy help please

[Joely21]

Hope your ok not suffering too badly,

I am really struggling at the minute I am 4 weeks into my 3rd depo injection and I am bleeding really heavily in the last 3 days I’ve had to get up in the middle of the night over 6 times to change as the bleeding is so heavy. It’s not even spotting just really heavy bleeding and clotting. Is this normal should I be worried do I need to see my Gp ASAP? It’s really getting me down and affecting my day and night as I’m having to change regularly and shower in the middle of the night.

Thank you once again your all amazing

Joely

Joely21,

That sounds truly horrible. I'm so sorry you're going through this! I personally don't know about depo shots as I haven't had any experience with them, but I know there have been other threads discussing them here. Maybe try a search for the keyword to see what turns up?

I'm so sorry your post got lost in the shuffle. I hope you didn't feel too alone; if there is one thing we can all relate to here, it's feeling painfully alone. ❤️

I agree with Mary: you know your body. If something isn't right, don't hesitate to seek help.

Best wishes, my dear!

Dear Joely 21,

I am sorry to hear that you are suffering. Everyone reacts differently to different treatments and only you know what feels right or wrong with your body. Don't feel afraid to contact your GP if you feel something isn't right, they are there to support you.
