Continued Long Periods After Being On Depo, Painful Intercourse. Pain Due To Periods Or Due To Being On Depo?

Hi , I m going through a situation with me being on depo , This is my very first time being on birth control. I ve been on depo for 3 months now and been on my period for almost 2 weeks. Now that I am slightly getting off i had sexual intercourse with my boyfriend and when we was doing it , it was very painful so I m not sure if my period is not done or if the depo is causing it to be painful. Please Help! Thank you.

Hello, I have gone through your query and understood your concern. In my opinion Medroxyprogesterone have adverse effects of irregular / unpredictable/ prolonged bleeding or spotting, and heavy bleeding. I suggest you to stop this type of contraception and try different method. Hope this helped you. Thanks.
