A member asked:
I'm having some light pink spotting on the depo-provera shot, i know it's common, but i'm on my 3rd shot, is the color "pink" normal? what does it mean?

Depo bleeding: 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.
