    This is a common side effect of depo. Some women bleed, yet others never bleed during the entire time on the shot.

    You need to discuss this side effect with your doctor and see if it is worth continuing the depo.

    Hi I'm ashleigh I know exactly what your going through I had the depo it finished in may I have been having trouble ever since I'm being referred to a gynaecoligist it would be a good idea to ask your doctor to see one. I don't mean to sound cheeky but have you had the brown coloured discharge or when you wipe yourself. Also was there a reason for getting the depo as it may help me to give you advice as we are both on the same boat as the saying goes. Well if you want I could give you my email address and you could explain it better to me as I know what you going through hope you get better x
