What Causes Brown Vaginal Spotting After Weaning Off Depo-Provera?

Hi , I was wondering if it s a side effect to have light brown spotting from coming off the depo shot ? I got my last shot at the end of July and I m not getting it again . But I ve been spotting light brown stuff off and then on for a few weeks . I got a light period for a couple hours then it went away and that s happened twice , is that normal ?
