Coming off the depo shot

I got the depo shot in July to slow down my bleeding after my Dr found a mass in my uterus. I just started to get my period again in January and that was just spotting and old blood. In February I got a regular period but it was short and still spotty with old blood, March was completely normal. Now its April and I'm still waiting for it to show. All of the ones before came on schedule. Is this fluctuation normal or could something else be going on?

It is very normal on the depo shot... irregular bleeding is very common. I have been off the depo shot for a month and a half now, and i have been going through the same thing.

I dont know much about the depo shot. But I would say its probably normal. But If you are worried about it, I would call my doctor.
