Common Questions and Answers about Depo provera yeast infection

depo-provera

Avatar n tn but yeah I called my doctor and he denied it being the Depo Provera, said it is probably just a yeast infection and to take some monistat.... though when I get the depo shot I also had a pap which came back with no signs of a yeast infection only three days before i started having this problem... though I didn't think about the fact that I couldn have gotten one afterwards, because of the dryness and what not. What ever is going on it just has to go away.
Avatar f tn As for the burning and itchy - sounds like another yeast infection, as bacteria and yeast often thrive in a warm moist environment, which is the case with an ongoing low grade discharge. I'd say pop along to your doctor or gynocologist and get it checked out.
Avatar n tn hello I have been diagnosed many times with yeast infections however they never seem to go away completely, In my relationship, we have a healthy sex life, however most recently (6 months to now) I can not preform because after 10 minutes into sex i have intense pain, it feels swollen, and burning sensation during and after. I have tried to use variety of lubrication, however, it makes it worse. I also have had pelvic screenings and their clean.
Avatar f tn I missed a dose of Depo provera by 7 days now. I know that I am not pregnant due to no intercourse. My question is do I still have to wait until I get a cycle? What if I dont have a cycle for several months, in the past my cycle was abnornal to begin with. If I have the depo without being on my cycle will I still be protected? I started the depo Aug. 2008. And had never missed a dose until this time. My dose was due May 1, 2009. Can anyone help me with this???
Avatar f tn t put it off for any length of time as was normal) and more vaginal discharge than normal. Although I did have a yeast infection following a large dose of antibiotics after an unrelated surgery, the yeast infection has been cleared up. Could the incontinence be related to the fibroid? I have told my Dr. I am uncomfortable with any type of HRT, including birth control pills. What is the best next course of action?
Avatar n tn I received the birthcontrol shot 'Depo-provera' sometime in August, and in late September I started getting a slightly odd brown vaginal discharge, not long after, I started spotting uterus tissue and blood, typical period, I hear you can still have a light period when on the shot. But It's been about a week since the actual bleeding has stopped and I'm still getting the discharge, it smells a tiny bit metallic and I thought it may just be left over dead blood or something.
Avatar n tn My girlfriend started using the depo-provera shot about a month ago. We abstained from sex for a week after the injection just to be safe. Two weeks after the injection we had to make a visit to her family practice doctor because we had a hunch that she had a bladder infection. We were right. The doctor prescribed her to take 250 mg of Ciprofloxacin twice daily and of course Phenazopyridine for the pain.
Avatar f tn m outside the normal range of time after stopping Depo Provera to have gotten my periods back. Could Depo be causing these problems or does it sound like something else could be a problem?
Avatar f tn If you were using Depo-Provera it may take longer for your cycles to return to normal. Keep in mind that Depo-Provera is designed to be a long-lasting form of birth control. Even though it is intended to help you avoid pregnancy for up to three months, it may actually prevent pregnancy longer. Depo-Provera is a synthetic hormone similar to progesterone.
Avatar n tn In December 2013, our family doctor suggested she have the Depo Provera for birth control and to regulate her heavy menses. Mid January she came down with viral like symptoms (aches, pains, fevers, fatigue). This led to severe pelvic pain and pain in her bottom. On 2/22/14, I rushed her to the ER. They said her colon, bladder & intestines were swollen and inflamed. Her colon in fact was close to rupturing. She was admitted, and underwent biopsies which caused her bladder to perforate.
Avatar f tn I'm on the final day of taking metronidazole gel and I've noticed bloody clumpy discharge. Is this a sign the infection is going away or should I be concerned cause I'm on Depo-provera so I don't have my period.
Avatar n tn I have had discharge that seems murky brown, and even blood spotting. (I do not get a period due to Depo provera, so it cannot be menstrual blood). After urination (which is not painful, but feels slightly uncomfortable) I gently blot instead of wiping, because it's extremely sensitive and painful, and usually trace amounts of fresh, red blood appear on the toilet paper. I have not had sex in 2 days, but it remains just as painful.
Avatar f tn Recently, Me and My Boyfriend had un-protected sex.. and afterwards i started bleeding. we haven't had sex in a week, what could time be a sign of.. I am on Depo Provera-the birth control shot?
3113005 tn?1341773834 I am little confused by your question. The depo provera shot is given once every three months not for three months at some unspecified interval. If you mean that you received the depo shot 4 months ago, and hence, the last month, you did not get a repeat depo shot, then the answer to your question is, yes, you can get pregnant. I was on the depo shot for about 5 years before stopping to try to conceive. It took me 3 years to conceive my son who is 6 years old.
Avatar f tn Irregular menstrual periods, or no periods at all Headaches Nervousness Depression Dizziness Acne Changes in appetite Weight gain Excessive growth of facial and body hair Hair loss Loss of bone mineral density Most of the side effects are not common. Change in the menstrual cycle is the most common side effect. You may experience irregular bleeding or spotting. After a year of use, about 50% of women will stop getting their periods. Their periods usually return when they discontinue the shots.
Avatar n tn Hello, Irregular bleeding like you describe is a common side effect of Depo Provera. Your girlfriend should have been counseled about this possibility when initiated on the medication. If she has any questions/concerns she should see the provider who is prescribing the medication. Best regards, Dr.
Avatar f tn I've been on depo provera for 15 years and my periods stopped right away. I'm 45 years old and just had a period that lasted 5 days. My question is whether or not depo provera is still working as my birth control choice? Is there a way to know if depo provera is no longer working and if I may get pregnant?
Avatar f tn I'm wondering how aroused you are when you're having penis-vagina sex. If you're having lots of vigorous p-v sex, with hard thrusting and you're not turned on, this may be irritating your delicate tissues. It's obvious that's what your doc thinks. However, I'm also wondering if Depo-Provera might not be involved as well. It's time to return to your gynecologist and get a thorough work-up. Depo alters your hormonal balance.
Avatar f tn Quick question... which Depo are you on? There are two kinds, that I'm aware of: Depo Provera or Depo Lupron. I had tried the Provera when I was about 16 for about a year. I had to stop because I could not handle the side effects any longer. I did spot for about 3 months. It usually takes a few months for your system to get used to it. The Lupron stops your period completely and basically puts your body into menopause, which is the one I am currently on.

Avatar m tn I started birth control at 15 for heavy periods. I switched to Depo Provera after about 6 years on the same pill. I was on Depo Provera for 1 year. I stopped in December 2015 due to irritating light spotting and mood changes. I began BC pills that allow for a period only once every 3 months. The spotting now only occurs after sex or self stimulation. I got my period in February, and it was extremely light (not at all like I remember).
Avatar f tn Hello everyone, I have never turned to a forum of any kind for any reason before but I am now because I don't feel like I can really talk to anyone in my personal life about what I'm dealing with every day & have them actually understand. I am 22 years old. I have had 4 laproscopy's in the past 4 years (the last one being a week ago today) & 3 DNC's (along with the past 3 surgeries - not this most recent surgery) to clean out the endometriosis & everything.
Avatar m tn In October 5, 2015, my 15 year old daughter received the depo shot. Two weeks after receiving the shot, she woke unable to move her limbs. She regained movement after a few hours, but one week after that she went numb on the left side and had slurred speech. She was rushed to the hospital because doctors feared she was having a stroke. After having an MRI, MRA, Lumbar Puncture, Ultrasound, X-Ray, EEG, EKG, and lots of blood work...all tests were normal.
