Long back story but made the incredibly stupid and ill informed decision to have a depo jab as an emergency measure following a suspected molar pregnancy right at the beginning of lockdown when I was told I shouldn't get pregnant under any circumstances and my options were limited.
It turns out it wasn't molar so I didn't need to avoid pregnancy, but my cycle is utterly shot to shit (has always been precarious due to PCOS). Had 6 months of constant spotting, the GP prescribed progestin to try to kickstart cycles and since then I've had a heavy period approximately every 11-15 days, couple of longer cycles to raise my hopes before returning to the fortnightly bleeds. Coming up to a year since the jab. I'm just very despondent and fed up, pushing 40 and although already have DC I am desperate for one more, which is looking more and more unlikely. Not to mention I suspect I'm anaemic due to such frequent bleeds.
Anyway. If anyone in a similar position fancies a chat or a good moan or has any bright ideas to encourage fertility return, please come and join me (AF just arrived AGAIN this morning so mood currently at its blackest but occasionally I lighten up a bit). Never regretted anything more than that stupid spur-of-the-moment decision. Was told it lasted 3 months. HA.
