"i went on the shot in early july (2016) because i had very heavy periods that i wanted to control. after the first month, my regular cycle came but never stopped. i bled every single day until my next shot. the doctor told me it should stop after the second shot once it regulated in my body. about a week after my shot, i started bleeding even heavier. i was having to change my tampon each hour and blood clots were coming out of me. after a month of bleeding like that it began to settle. i decided that i was not going to get my third shot ( january 2017). anyways it is now june and i am still bleeding every single day. i&#039;m now anemic and have no energy. not to mention all of the money i have spent on pads and tampons."
