Hi Ladies...

I am 10 months out right now and VERY VERY happy!  I had all the regular things going on..hair loss, missing my monthly for about 3 months straight (THAT  kinda freaked me out!), etc. Now here's a new "thing".  This month, I started my period about 2 weeks ago...it has been literally spotting for 2 weeks now.  Nothing heavy..just spotting, and it wont stop!  Usually I'm heavy for 2 days, spot for a day or two and then done. So..anyone else have this problem? Is it the hormones?

Thanks for your help in advance!

Probably hormones.  Is there any chance you could be pregnant?  If there is, I'd get a test and make sure you're not.  Otherwise, I'd call your doc if it continues another week or two.

Then it's probably just hormones.  I'd call the doc if other symptoms develop or when it finally starts making me too crazy.

I'm three weeks out. I'm on the Depo shot, but I started bleeding right away. There was no pms, so I thought maybe it was just the blood thinner they give you in the hospital. It stopped for a couple of days but it's started again. Again, no pms. I'm on the Depo shot to prevent hormone swings (I had pretty bad pmdd), not for birth control. My pcp, psychiatrist, and therapist are all aware of my concerns regarding a return of pmdd while estrogen gets released due to fat loss. I certainly didn't expect it to happen this quickly. I have a follow-up this afternoon and will ask about this.
