Answer

Irregular bleeding after coming off the depo shot is common as your system is getting used to the loss of the hormones in your system. Bleeding after intercourse is usually a sign of infection. You may need to see your doctor about that.

I was on depo for about 3 years, when I started having irregular bleeding after sex I got off it, even though I didnt have an infection...it just didnt seem healthy, and I took it as a sign from my body that it was time to stop.
