    Question

    Hi. I am a 22-year-old old female. I have been on Depo Provera for more than three years and never spotted during it. So I went to the doctor and they gave me the pill to start taking until it was time for my next shot to stop the bleeding. Every since I have been on the shot and pill, whenever I try to drink a small amount of alcohol, it triggers something bad inside my stomach. I want to know if you're allowed to be on both at the same time?

    Answer

    This is actually a pretty complicated question. I can't really answer it. I think it would be better for you to tell your doctor about all this and see what he/she says.
