Stop bleeding

Good day, I gave birth to my son on the 11th of November, and immediately went on the 3 month injection contraceptive, yet i am still bleeding. Is this normal? How long can i expect to still bleed?

Some women do have bleeding on the injectable. Often this is stopped by the second injection which should be due in about 2 weeks. I would suggest you go for that appointment and discuss with them.
