Bleeding after orgasm (not having sex) past depo user… help!!!!?

I’m so glad to have found this forum. I am 24 years old and have been trying to figure this problem out. I am generally healthy never had any issues and never took any form of birth control until August 08- Depo, I had spotting for the first few weeks then no period and I was THRILLED (although not having sex it was still nice to not worry) toward November when I was due for my 2nd depo shot I was bleeding again and figured it was "wearing off" and everything was normal- Then I had my period for 2 1/2 months! I decided not to get the shot again this time and my doc put me on progesterone pills for 10 days- stating everything would return to normal. I took the pills and the "period-like" bleeding stopped, but the last 3-4 months every time I have clitoral (no penetration- still not having sex) stimulation I bleed heavily for a few hours- clotted, fleshy deep red blood. I’ve been seeing a guy for several months and he must think I’m such a prude because I wont let his hand come anywhere near my vagina because I’d be mortified if I started bleeding all over… this is awful! HELP!!!!!!! I’ve also never had an abnormal pap or issues with yeast ect, but since the bleeding stopped I’ve had white discharge with a musky smell to it and I don’t know what to do- I feel so far from sexy its unbelievable- did I ruin my body with 2 stupid depo shots I didn’t even really need? This is terrible!

You’re not alone! I’ve been having the same problem… I’m 21 and I also had two doses of Depo but decided to get off of it because I hated it. (I gained 15 lbs the first 3 months). It was supposed to wear off in November, but I didn’t get my period back until the middle of February. Now whenever I have an orgasm I bleed approx. a teaspoon of blood just a couple of minutes after.

Over the phone, a nurse at my doc’s office said I bleed after orgasm because of the contractions/spasms that rock the uterus. She doesn’t know if the Depo is related to it. I have an appt to see me doctor Monday, so maybe I’ll get a better answer then? Email me at swizzle05@yahoo.com and I’ll let you know what my doc says!

Hope that helps a little. At least you know you’re not alone in this!
