Was on depo-provera for 2years & period stopped.now off depo-provera and 5months later having brown spotting 2/3 days long then stops & comes back the next week why?

Depo causes abn bldg: It is likely now out of your system and your bleeding is resuming. Depo commonly causes spotting, and this can be worse during or after intercourse. This side effect tends to get better over time. Now that you are off of depo, your periods should resume normally soon. Be patient. Best of luck!
