Depo Shot

So I’ve been having a little bit of break through bleeding. My cramps are really bad to where I don’t wanna eat but once. I get my 3 month shot in a month. Is it normal to be bleeding so early?

It is the depo-provera shot

🙂OK, type depo provera in the search box (above right), you’ll see links to discussions on groups other than Women’s Health.

Everyone is different, but my experience on the depo shot was similar to yours. I went 3 months straight bleeding and then it stopped.

I got put on the shot because I was having paralyzing cramps. I also went 6 months straight without a period

You know your body best, if you don’t feel right please tell your doctor so they could perhaps switch you to something else.
