Infection?: With depoprovera for contraception, it is exceedingly unlikely you are pregnant. Any new or unexplained vaginal bleeding or discharge needs professional evaluation, and you have both. These symptoms suggest infection, and at age 19 this usually means an STD like chlamydia, gonorrhea, or trichomonas. Get checked soon. Good luck.

It's very unlikely: that you're pregnant after 2 doses of depo shot. Irregular bleeding is the most common side effect of the deep shot. This will improve with time. However,I encourage you to do a "peace of mind" pregnancy test. Just to be on the safe side--Dr. Anne
