How To Stop Lengthy Periods With Brown Discharge After Having Depo Injection?
Hi, I had the depo injection about 2 and a half months ago now and have had my period pretty much the entire time, starting as spotting then to a full period for about 2 or 3 weeks when I spoke to my doctor as I was extremely dizzy and unwell from such a lengthy period but she said there was nothing they could do as it was just the injection. It stopped for a week but then spotted again and now I have had a horrible brown discharge for weeks and I don t know how to stop it or clean it to get rid of it. Please help!

Hello,
Prolonged spotting is an expected effect of depo injection. It will eventually subside once your body get used to the medication.
