A member asked:

Why i am i still having a brown bloody discharge 2 months after having my baby? two weeks after she was born i took the depo-provera shot.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Not uncommon: Could be still normal from delivery or it could be secondary to the Depo-Provera shot. If it continues for more than another month, have it evaluated.
