    DEPO

    Hi Ladies,
    I got my Depo shot on June 2010, but due to my insurance which got cancelled (long story) I couldn't go back in to get my schedule shot which was Sept. So I haven't had my period since Jully 11, 2010. I'm stressing out and worried because it's been 5 months.

    need help please

    I think you need to speak to your doctor, just to make sure you're not harming yourself by leaving it for so long

      It's always best to check with your doctor...but Depo is known to cause lots of women to stop having their period. My cousin was on it for 10 years and didnt have a period the entire time. She's now been off of it for close to 1 year (in hopes to conceive) and still hasn't ovulated or had a period.

      Talk to your doctor if you're worried and also take a pregnancy test because your doc will most likely ask if you could be pregnant.
