    The depo shot effects every woman differently. Some bleed the entire time, some don't bleed at all. I am currently on the shot and haven't had any problems, but my friend had it and said she bled almost the entire time (I think she was on it for a year). The shot lasts for 3 months, so if you had it 2 months ago you should be through bleeding in a month...no longer than a month and a half. As for the loestrin, I don't think you should take it until your shot wears off unless your doctor said it was okay. The pill usually works for everyone and there's so many different varieties, there is definitely one for you. Your period will be back to normal once you get on the pill and should be regular within the two months after you start it as long as you take it properly.

    My checklist informed me it may take in to 18 months for my gadget to come again to everyday after coming off the shot. It replace into terrible. I want i could in no way gotten on it. thoroughly abnormal sessions, very heavy with clotting, worst cramps ever, and could final consistently. Get 2 days off and then initiate lower back.. form of made childbirth a breeze. Lol.
