Hi dear and thanks for your query at Healthcare Magic.

I have read your question carefully and understand your health concern.

Spotting along with brown discharge and abdominal cramping can be a side effect of Depo-shot .

But if spotting will long for more than 3 weeks than you should talk with your gynecologist.

Hope I have been helpful and please feel free for further discussion.
