Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Possibility of withdrawal bleeding from stopping depo injection is more likely.
You were on depo injection from long time. So when you stop it, it will cause hormonal imbalance and withdrawal bleeding.
This is normal.
No need to worry for this.
This bleeding will stop in few days.
If bleeding still persist, get done hormone levels to identify hormonal imbalance and start appropriate hormonal pills to regulate hormones.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
