i suggest u call your doctor and ask if spotting is usual for when u first start birth control...to me i think it would be normal since u have a different amount of hormones in ur body than usual...[sometimes the blood is red because its fresh & its brown because its old] but i wouldnt worry too much...try calling your doctor & asking tho

That is one of the 'lovely' side affects of depo.
It could last months.

Read up reviews on depo. I really recommend you DON'T get the next shot! Also google "depo provera lawsuit". TOO MANY women have very serious health issues because of their time on the depo shot.
I was on it four years and I'm so glad I'm off of it.

Yea that is one side affect of Depo. I was on the shot for a year and boy was it hell. Not only do you have abnormal cycles, but wight gain, headaches, vomitting. Just to name a few.....

ok it has been a week already, I recommend for you to go to your gynecologist
other thing it may be normal for it to happen a day or 2 but for more than that is too much
