yes spotting can be common on this form of birth control. it may improve with time or you may continue to have spotting in which case you may have to find a different hormonal birth control method.
i have only had one depo-vera shot but havent had sex since i was on it. is it normal to have irregualr periods? . i had one depo-vera shot so it lasted for the duration of 3 months. at the end of the 3 months my boyfriend and i broke up so i decided not to get another shot. i also didn't like the infrequent periods and wanted to switch. it's been 2 months since the shot expired and i have not had sex. since then i have had my period once with a regular flow. now on my next cycle i seem to be spotting. is this normal since i had the depo-vera shot?
