Infection or Cancer: Please change your gender on your profile. We really rely upon such facts to give you the best medical answers we can. Gender is vital to be correct. You have kidneys and liver and immune systems that keep your body cleansed. There is no medical benefit to doing any other type of "cleanse'. Spotting is a sign of trauma, infection, or cancer. It probably has nothing to do with the DEPO.

Resubmit information: It is not unusual for a Female to have spotting on Depo - particularly with the first shot. However, your information states that you are a Male Patient. Is this in Error? Male or Female, cleansing by Purging or unusual diets is not recommended. What are you using for this Cleanse?
