Can Depo Shots Cause Light Discharge With Cramps?
Question: Hi im currently on the depo shot. I was on the depo before but i stop, but as of 2 months ago i began getting my shot. By the time i got my last shot, i was pregnant. I got a medical abortion. The doctor said since i was still on the depo, i was still protected. I've been sexually actice. And as of 2 days ago i began to have pink discharge with light to really intense cramps. But there is no blood. What can this mean?
Brief Answer:
Can be due to depo.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
The light discharge with cramps can be due to hormonal changes associated with depo shot. It can cause irregular and mild bleeding. You can have an over the counter anti spasmodic and avoid hot and spicy food and see if it helps.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
