A member asked:

I am on the depo-provera but i have not gone this month i have brown and light red discharge i also have heartburn sometimes. could i be pregnet?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Breakthrough bleed: off depo,, You will need a pregnancy test and if negative you can get back on the Depo-Provera shot. Discuss with your doctor. If you do not want to get pregnant get your Depo-Provera shot on time.
