Welcome to the EmpowHER community. Thank you for reaching out to us for answers regarding bleeding during intercourse and a prolonged period.
I urge you to contact your gynecologist about this matter today.
Changes in the menstrual cycle are a reported side effect of Depo-Provera injectable. It contains medroxyprogesterone acetate, which is a form of progesterone, a female hormone used as contraception to prevent pregnancy.
Patients are advised to contact their doctors at once if you have menstrual periods that are heavier or longer than normal.
pinkgirl671, I did find a blog on the website, Drugs.com, where two visitors said that they did experience bleeding after intercourse while receiving the Depo-Provera injections.
