Abnormal Uterine Bleeding
"I started depo mid Feb, I&#039;m 38, can&#039;t have kids, but due to a work injury, my periods were aggravating my back pain. My period lasted 12 days. I then stopped bleeding, missed a period and was stoked thinking it was working...nope..for the last 37 days I have been bleeding. I had a scan, found a 3x7mm polyp and found that my uterus had backflipped and my endometrial wall was thick. I&#039;ve just had my second shot, the doctor said 2 or 3 days and the bleeding should stop. Fingers are crossed, but I don&#039;t have high hopes, I&#039;m looking into getting my uterus removed...that&#039;s how miserable the prolonged bleeding has made me. On the flip side though, my 19yo daughter got the injection the same day as me and has had no dramas what so ever."
