depo-subQprovera

Have you experienced any of the following problems with depo-subQprovera?

1. The product clogging the needle
2. The needle disconnecting from the syringe when administering
3. Complaints of bruising and nodule formation at the injection site

If you have observed these problems what actions did you take to mitigate these issues?

Thank you for your help.
