A member asked:

After orgasming - i noticed some vaginal bleeding - dark brown. could the depovera injection be causing this or something else?

Not depo: The depo-provera should not be causing this. Possible causes are a cervical polyp or an infection. You should see your doctor and get a pelvic exam to determine the cause.
