Didn't Take Second Depo Shot. Have Been Spotting, Having Light Brown Discharge, Cramps. Pregnancy Test Negative. Possibility Of Pregnancy?
My first depo shot was July 22, 2013 and I was due for my second shot on October 22, 2013, which I never went for, I've spotted very light pink then last week very light brown followed my minor lower abdominal cramping for about an hour, I've taken 3 home pregnancy tests which came out negative, is there a possibility I'm pregnant?

Hi,
Not taking the second shot as caused a hormonal imbalance. But yes, you are not protected from pregnancy either. I suggest you take a urine test first. If its negative, then ride it out. Or use other forms of contraception. This is occuring due to hormonal imbalance. It will take some time to even out.
