Normal finding.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
After the depo shots the brownish discharge that you are having is a normal finding. This is not suggestive of an impending period. This discharge will gradually decrease on its own in 2-3 weeks.
Your regular periods will resume in 1-2 months. Just wait and please do not worry.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
