A member asked:
Hi, i've had 2 depo-provera shots so far, not had any spotting except this week, today its been really dark brown clots the size of a pea when i wipe, normal?

Depo effect: Bleeding on depoprovera is highly variable. There is no normal time for your period on this birth control method. Most have no periods. Some have irregular bleeding. Irregular bleeding can be annoying but it does not mean that the method is not working. This side effect is very typical of Progesterone only birth control methods.
