i gave birth 5 1/2 months ago and i recieved the depo shot 2 months after giving birth but for the past month i have been bleeding like it was a period but it also seems as though my body is still getting rid of stuff. the depo ran out in may and im still bleeding. i know its from the depo but IS THERE ANY WAY THAT I MIGHT BE PREGNANT EVEN THOUGH IM STILL BLEEDING?

That is one of the lovely side affects of depo.
I would suggest doing more research on the shot before getting your next one administered.
I was on it for four years and am so glad I am OFF of it. I am on Kariva (pill) now and I have no side affects.

i did the same thing you did..i got the depo a month after i had my daughter and two months later i was still bleeding. i consulted my physician about it's abnormality and she said it was normal to bleed up to six months after you give birth only because your body is still trying to get rid of everything. you might want to get your self looked at though because the doctors could have forgotten some "stuff" in your womb. that also can make you bleed like that and cause infection. talk to your doctor. =)

I doubt it. The depo can really screw with some women and the cycles, I would give it some time, it will straighten out. Or you could talk to your doctor about it.
