i had an endometrial biopsy on monday to try to figure out why i have been having a period since the middle of march. My blood work did come back that i was pre menopausel. 3 weeks ago the doctor gave me a depro something shot that was suppose to stop my period and keep it that way for a year. In 3 weeks nothing stopped. slowed a little but still bleeding. I had a normal pap in november. last night it was 80 degrees in my home and i was literally cold to the point of trembling (thinking I may have an infection) last night i was passing some blood clots but today i have been passing huge bood clots and am suffering pain (i never have cramps so i guess that is what i am feeling,) I am very nervous and have called the dr 3 times today and have had no return call or any response, is this normal and should i worry. i am alone and am very scared

I can understand your anxiety. If you are feeling these symptoms then you should call 911 before you actually "pass out" from severe blood loss ("last night i was passing some blood clots but today i have been passing huge bood clots"). You might need a blood transfusion depending upon your CBC; therefore, it would be beneficial to telephone 911 since nobody is there with you to drive you to the ER.

Loss of blood can cause cold intolerance ("last night it was 80 degrees in my home and i was literally cold to the point of trembling").   Depo-provera can cause hot flashes but rarely have I heard of it causing cold intolerance. During perimenopause, sometimes birth control pills help with very heavy, frequent, or unpredictable menstrual periods.

During perimenopause women first notice changes in their menstrual period which may no longer be regular. How much you bleed could change, as in your case, you could have a heavier flow and periods may last longer. These are all normal results of changes in your reproductive system as you grow older. Once you haven't had a period for 12 consecutive months, you've reached menopause.
