Welcome to EmpowHER. A common side effect of the shot is that menstruation stops altogether. For most women is normal to continue experiencing menstrual irregularities after stopping the shots. That can sometimes last for more then a year. It's important to see your OBGYN and discuss with him the symptoms you are having, sometimes medication to treat these irregularities can be prescribed. Hope this was helpful?
