bleeding after birth control injection
I started seeing my period on February 8 and took the birth control injection for the first time on February 10 and I have not stop bleeding since then, and it seems to be coming heavier instead of slowing down. I was wondering if I was pregnant when I got the injection and did not know or maybe something else is wrong with me. I need some advice please!
Is this the Depo Provera Birth Control Shot? They should give you a pregnancy test any time you start on a shot or BCP's. I know when I was on Depo my Dr did a pregnancy test before every shot. If it is Depo, then it has crazy side effects, it does weird things to your body. When I was on it I bleed for almost 3 months straight. Try googling the name of the birth control shot you got, it will give you a list of side effects and you can see if what you are experienceing is a side effect. Also if it continues you may want to contact your Dr.
i got my first depo shot and kept bleeding as well so i never went back and got the second shot 3 months later i bled for 8 months straight went to another doctor and she put me on pills and it stopped the bleeding, my cousin is on the shot and has had no problems with it...my best friend on the other hand was on the shot and got pregnant...
