Can u get pregnant while spotting on depo?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Very unlikely.: Depo-provera causes the lining inside of your uterus to become very thin. This can result in spotting and bleeding. It does not affect how well depo-provera works but it is a nuisance. This can usually be treated very easily by taking a low-dose estrogen for a short period of time. Consult with your gynecologist.
