Is Vaginal Bleeding Normal After Being On Depo Shot For Two Years?

I have been on the depo shot for over 2 years and have never bled til today. I am not sexually active, I was put on depo for ovarian cysts when the pills didn t work for me. I just want to know if it is normal to randomly start bleed after 2 years on depo?

Hello,

The absence of a period is normal for the depo shot. Also, the heavy period after 2 years is possible. I can recommend you to check possible ending of the progesterone depo and you may need to redo the shot.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Olgeta Xhufka, General & Family Physician
