How Will I Know That Depo Shot Is Wearing Off ?
I have been bleeding since the first day I was injected with Depo the ending date is February 12 and I just stopped bleeding does this mean its out of my system or its starting to wear off

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
Depo shots are usually associated with an irregular bleeding.
Stoppage of bleeding does not mean that its contraceptive effect is over.The contraceptive effect remains good for three months even if the irregular bleeding stops.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
