Hi, so I got my first depo injection on the 1st September after having my LB it’s my first time ever having i was fine the first few weeks then around 2/3 weeks ago I started bleeding only spotting but not enough to wear a pad, anyway the bleeding started to get heavier and on Tuesday night (26th October) I started getting cramps so I had a bath to see if that would ease the pain and when I got out and went to put a clean pad on I had lost quite a bit clot I would say the size on my palm and then the pain went the bleeding hasn’t changed but still a little heavy, I phoned my doctors and they pretty much just didn’t care they said it could be a side effect from the injection or could of been a loss and if I was to loose anymore or the bleeding get worse or I’m worried go to a&e but I’ve been fine apart from this morning the cramping has came back, has anyone else had this with the injection and can give me some advice please

I bled with it but didn't get clots. I gave up after my 2nd as the bleeding continued. I also put on loads of weight

I’ve been on the depo since July this year & I have bled everyday.. it’s been light, sometimes heavy & i’ve had clots too. I had a second shot in September as they advised it may stop the bleeding but it didn’t, doctors gave me 2 different medications to slow down/stop the bleeding and they didn’t work. I’m now just waiting for it to wear off as my next shot is due around December 13th but I’m not gonna get it done & hope to God I go back to normal soon. I wouldn’t advise it for anyone tbh now I’m reading all the stories on here I regret it so much :(
