What Does Brown Vaginal Spotting While On Depo Shots Suggest?
I been on the depo for a couple weeks , i instantly got off my menstrual. Like 2 weeks later i spotted brown blood and that never happened to me while on depo. I been having pregnancy symptoms before i got on the depo .. i took 2 tests and one was a faint line and the second was negative, could i be pregnant?

Hi
Since your pregnancy tests have been negative,it is highly unlikely you were pregnant before starting depo.
You have not mentioned about intercourse after starting depo. Incase the answer is yes,you may have to take another urine test.
If the test is negative,the spotting has occurred due to the depo and will regularise in the next few cycles.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
