Idea

My doc said that this was due to my body settling down on the injection. It isnt uncommon to have long periods of bleeding wioth the first 3 shots, but after 3, it should calm down, and over a period of time of continual use of the shot, it can stop your periods altogether. If you are in any doubt or are suffering due to the long bleeding, consult your doc he can give you meds to stop it.
