Has Anyone Else Had Issues With Depo-Provera?

Since trying the Depo-Provera shot in July, my cycle has been destroyed. (I only took the first dose because it caused me an almost unmanageable 3-week migraine and I couldn't physically handle that every 3 months while working and going to so many other Dr's Appts.) I now experience menstrual symptoms 2-3 weeks of the months instead of 3-7 days, and I can no longer predict when I'm going to start bleeding. As a heavy bleeder, that's a big issue. Has anyone else had issues with Depo? If so, how did you manage them?

Had this happen to, early 2019. Unfortunately I didn't get regular for almost a year. Its better now but I bled straight for a while after and then got spotty and unpredictable.
