What to do if i just started my first period while on depo-provera, what should i expect?

Another shot: If you are using the Depo Provera (medroxyprogesterone) shot for contraception, it is time to get another shot. If not give your md some follow up. The bleeding is usually mild (brown discharge) and lasts 1 to 3 days.
