    Depo shot emergency
    I took my first shot about 2.5 mouths ago(almost ready for the 2nd one). The first two weeks I was VERY itchy every where and every day ( the itching stop now). I was not expecting a period but I have been bleeding light for 2.5 weeks STRAIGHT now. I wanted to know if anyone have experience similar symptom or any suggestion.
    Uhm... not only have I been bleeding for 2 weeks straight, but I also notice that I have an unpleasant smell ( even after taking a shower). I"am thinking it because of the long term bleeding, but I am not sure. I am worry, and I need some sort of feed back please.

    Hello I had the same thing I've been on depo nearly a year and have only got my period once while on it my period went for at least over two weeks so that's normal and to me I think the smell would be normal too from the build up of old blood and stuff but I wouldn't stress too much you may also like to just go to the doctors to get a check up and make sure its nothing more seriouse
    Good luck

    I called and asked the nurse after continuous bleeding after 3 weeks and she said it was just spotting, and I thought well that sucks, as long as it eventually stops it should probably be fine for you. (although I called after it has been going on for 3 months now she said I should get it checked out. Hope you're having better luck than me.)
