my doctor put me on premarin, then i got the second shot a couple weeks early per my doctor, sept 9th, its like all the bleeding stopped, about 9 days ago i started spotting again. my next shot is due like nov 25 th or dec 1 cuz the dr likes every 12 wks. its not like it alot, cuz i can put in a tampon and wear it all day and hardly anything, but its so random, once in awhile maybe twice it was a little more, but not much. are these common complaints? and how long will it last? people tell me after the 3 shot it gets better yet. but my dr wants to try a biopsy to eliminate things. i have never had irregular bleeding before.
Before depro it got my period every 26 to 28 days just like clock work... and they were heavy the first day and then nothing for 3 days after...
please give me your opinion, and any and all help is welcome thank you

Something you really need to think about, is that Premarin can make you be a higher candidate for Cancer. I did not say you are going to get Cancer by the rate of incident goes up with hormonal pills like Premarin. I was on it once and I found a-typical cells in my Breasts (they were turning to Cancer) I can not say that for sure that was the cause but never again will I take hormones.
I hope you find answers...

that seems a little odd to me, after my 1st shot i havent had my period for almost 6 years now! thats the best part about it though, ive had some massive weight gain i actually just had my last shot in october and im switching to something else. besides weight gain ive had good luck with it. i would watch it very close, that just doesnt seem right. it might just take alonger time period for you body to adjust, good luck!!

I know this answer is also a bit late, but it was continuous for me forever!!
This went on for the first nine months. Break thru bleeding... irregular bleeding..not heavy just constant. Apparantly it was perfectly normal. A little over a year now, it seems to have dissappeared completely!!
