A member asked:
I've been on depo-provera for about a year now and i was bleeding for maybe 3 days and now i've had this dark brown/red stringy discharge for the past week?

Probably fine: On the depo-provera you will have irregular bleeding from time to time. Blood can be red, pink, dark brown, orangish...it's all normal. If you have pelvic pain and a fever then you need to be checked for infection.
