Don’t worry : There are many reasons to spot & bleed on Depo-Provera. Most women stop having regular periods, but it is common I’m not dangerous or worrisome to have unpredictable spotting and bleeding, especially the first six months using Depo. Do you have fevers? pain or cramping? vaginal discharge? recent hard or deep or painful sex? Infection or trauma can also cause bleeding, get exam if possible
