Hi,
These kind of discharge are quite common after stopping depo provera so I will advice you to have a course of norethisterone tablets to stop your brown discharge first, and do a thyroid profile photo and then try to conceive.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
