<s>[INST] Hi. I used depo before which made me bleed non stop for 6 months. I like depo because I don't have to remember to take it everyday and my opinion it really works as far as me not getting pregnant. I want to start depo again but I just don't want to bleed the same. I did some research and it say maca root helps to regulate hormones. Do you think maca root will help with the bleeding cause from depo? [/INST] depo provera acts by inhibiting ovulation. it decreasse levels of FSH & LH. Irregular and heavy bleeding due to it can be managed by ethinyl estradiol or conjugated estrogen for 7-21 days or low dose oc for 7-21 days.Maca is a natural herb which suuports natural body estrogen and progesterone. in my opinion, it can be tried for this purpose. </s>
