No Periods, Intermittent Brown Discharge After Getting Off Depot Injection. Had Normal Pap Smear. What Is The Reason?
I have been on the depot injection for years and never had this before when I have come off it. My last injection was in September and I have not had a period yet. I am getting intermittent brown discharge when I wipe sometimes. No pain. Had recent smear that was normal. As this has never happened before I am a little worried can you help explain why this is happening?

It is normal to not have periods after depot injection . Also pap smear is normal so absolutely nothing to worry about.
