Is it normal to have a brownish color discharge at the end of your first depo shot? i have to get my second one in two weeks

NO: Chance you have an infection. Go see the doctor who gave you the injection before this becomes a serious issue.

Depo: Unscheduled spotting and bleeding are common in the first few months of use. A brownish discharge should be reported to your doctor as a GU infection could also be the cause.
