Hello ma'am and welcome.

A brown discharge that lasts for a maximum of 2-3 days with a recent history of unprotected sexual intercourse could be suspected for an implantation bleed.

But taking into consideration your history of depo shots, this could also be a side effect of coming off the shots. Please take another home pregnancy test at least 2 weeks from the suspected date of conception using an early morning urine sample or report to a doctor for confirmation.

Hope this helps.

Best wishes.
