Can depo provera cause spotting

Answer 1

Everyone who goes on Depo Provera has changes in her bleeding. Some women bleed more, others bleed less. Some women don't have a period from the time of the first injection; for other women, periods will stop after two or four injections. Women on Depo Provera may have spotting (brown or red discharge) that goes on for days, weeks, or months. This spotting is not an indication of pregnancy or a sign that Depo Provera is not effective, as long as you've gotten your injection on time.

Spotting can also be a sign of infection. If you have not been tested for gonorrhea and chlamydia, talk to your health care provider about whether you should be tested.

i was pregnant like 100 times and i loved it! anyway, yes! congrats!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The same thing happened to me. I spotted lightly for the entire three months of my first depo shot. Fortunately after my next shot, the spotting stopped. My sister had the same experience.

Your doctor should have explained that you may have irregular spotting/bleeding during the first 3-6 months on the shot. The brown spotting is normal and should go away soon. :)

Answer 2

In the first three months, you may have irregular spotting or bleeding. It's less common on Nuva Ring than on the pill, but it can occur. After the three month "breaking in" period, you should see more regular periods and lighter flow.

Whatever bleeding you have, just keep using the ring on the schedule on your calendar, regardless of bleeding.

Unscheduled spotting or bleeding on the ring is most common in the first three months of use or if you left the ring out accidentally. If it is troublesome to you, or if you also have pain, painful urination, or unusual vaginal discharge, contact your health care provider for advice.

Answer 3

Yes, stopping the Birth Control patch can cause spotting. Your period should return to its previous pattern within one or two cycles. If you have not been using effective birth control and are experiencing spotting, take a pregnancy test.

Answer 4

Yes, stopping NuvaRing can cause spotting. When you decrease the hormone level in your body, spotting will occur.
