Occasionally: Occasionally a white milky lactation-like discharge will occur when a woman starts the Depo shots but you should probably discuss this with your doctor to make sure there is not another reason for it like a pituitary or thyroid problem. If you were having normal periods before you started the shot, it's probably fine, but I would feel better if you mentioned it to your doctor to be sure.
