I bleed the entire time i was on depo provera, they have recently switched to an oral form called oral provera, my gyn told me that the standard depo provera is not strong enough for endo, it can only aid in birth control. I am curently taking 20 mg a day, the standard dose of depo is 100-150 mg injection every 3 months. I am not sure how accurate this is, due to the fact that every doc has their own treatments for endo. I can tell you that i have been bleeding constantly since Jan 1, on both meds. Good luck, feel free to email.
