Had Depo Shot. Heavy Bleeding. Tried Premarin, Vitamins, Maca Root Pills. Not Helping. Switch To Pills, Stop Bleeding?

Hi, I have only used the depo shot two time. My first time was nov15 2012 and for the first three months i really didnt bleed. my second shot was jan 31 2013 and a month after that about march 8 i was spotting and now apr 23 it is heavy bleeding and no signs of stopping. i tried premarin for 3 days and slowed down but started back. I also take vietamins and maca root pills.I suposed to have gotten a shot on apr 18 but decided to do birth control pills to help with the bleeding. Will this stop all of this bleeding?

Hi,
Thanks for the query.
Yes, birth control pills can help in stopping the bleeding.
Better to take two pills a day with your doctor's advice to stop the bleeding.
Along with the pills you go for anti-fibinolytics initially.
Once the bleeding stops you can continue one tablet a day for the purpose of contraception.

Take care.
