Depo Provera Shot is it Right?

About two mths. ago I discovered I had fibroids (2) and because of location my doctors states she can't remove them.

So, on Feb. 6 of this year I received the Depo Provera shot. About a mth. after the shot I started spotting, then I started to have severe pain and discharge of large clots for one week. I would pass 2-3 large clots per day. When I contacted my doctor she suggested I take mortin 800mg. I have been bleeding for a mth or more. My doctor suggested that I needed another shot to stop the bleeding but my next shot is not due until the end of April.

I don't feel that I should be bleeding for such a long time. Now, my doctor has placed me on birth control pills to stop the bleeding, it has slowed it down a little but I still continue to bleed and as of recent I have started back passing smaller clots. I am concerned that I should not take the second shot.

Please if anyone has had this problem, or any experts...please offer me some onsite.

    OMG. Get a doctor that understands the body and how it works. Those vaccines are dangerous and it sounds like you are now in a major medical disaster that is doctor induced. Realize that over 106,000 people died last year in hospitals from drugs that were prescribed by doctors, FDA approved and legitimately prescribed. Only 10,000 to 20,000 people died last year of illegal drug use. Doesn't is seem we are fighting the wrong people in our WAR ON DRUGS!

    The doctor is treating the symptom, not the root cause of the fibroids. The root cause will still be there once that doctor gets through experimenting on you.

    I strongly suggest getting a second opinion and also seeing a Certified Nutritional Therapist to examine you to determine what your body is deficient in specific to you and then recommending a diet and supplements to correct the root cause.

    good luck to you

    I was on the depo shot twice and absolute nothing good came of it. I had a lot of spotting and went from being like 120 pounds to 155. Although its like pretty much completely accurate, its very unhealthy for you. It basically convinces your body its pregnant. The next shot probably will stop the bleeding, but its still not good for you. I've had friends who've gone on the shot and bled for three to four months. I probably didn't answer your question. But try the pills, or another alternative.

    I had that shot one time, i never went back to get it again after the 3 months, cuz i read in a medical book at work one day at the hospital and it has like 100 side effects. Side effects like pulmonary embolisms (blood clot in the lung) and all sorts of other crap that scared me. I have never taken birth control of any kind since then and that was like 8 years ago.

    I had depo shots and every time i got them i would be fine for a month, but for the following 2 months i'd bleed. I switched to another form of BC and it went away. I do not know why yours isnt going away though.
