I have been on Depo-Provera for about a year now and my next shot is on December 29, 2005. A couple of weeks ago I got my period and it lasted for about a week and then it stopped. My questions are can I get pregnant after I have my period while on Depo and why are my periods lasting for 2 weeks when it is so close to my next shot.

No, you cannot get pregant on depo while on your period. It inhibits ovulation. Your periods may become more and more irregular as time passes. When I was on it- almost 4 years- they stopped completely. If you are still freaked out bring it up with the doctor at your next shot.

I was on the depo for 6 months, 2 shots and from heavy bleeding i decided that I should get off. The Dr. gave me birth control to help with the bledding while the depo injection was still in my system. I know have heavy bleeding, because I decided that I would like to have another child. By me taking the extra birth control method will that have a longer wait time for me to be able to concieve?
