Hi there!

Here is a bit about my story after coming off birth control but particular the depo!

I came off the depo provera a year ago in November 2024 (Last jab was the August) and went on to the combined pill, stopping it at the start of March ready to TTC. I bled straight away after the depo wore off and then on each break of the pill.

Since March when I came off all contraception, my cycles have been all over the place! So far I bled every 2 weeks for around 2 months, then had 3 cycles ranging from 31 to 40 days, now back to bleeding every 2 weeks!

I have had medium/heavy flow normal periods on the longer cycles, whereas on the past few shorter cycles it's been more spotting but then will come out a fair bit when I go for a wee.

I have had a full blood count and thyroid test done and a abdominal and transvaginal scan which all came back normal.

Has anyone else experienced similar? Or what have you experienced in general? I have another docs appointment coming up soon.
