Irregular Period, Spotting With Pink Tinge Of Blood. On Depo Shot Since Long. Pregnant Or Implantation Bleeding?

Hi I have been on the depo shot since I had twins in November of 2008. Its been three and a half years, the whole time I have never had any type of bleeding . My periods stopped all together. Then at the end June 2012 I noticed that I was spotting pink. This lasted for about 5 or 6 days like a regular period but the whole time it was very light in color and flow. About a week in a halfsara later I had sum light cramping and the next day I woke up went to the bathroom and when I wiped there was a pink tinge of blood . Could I be pregnant and is the light tinge of blood possibly implantation? Any advise would help and be appreciated!!

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
Since you are taking depo shots regularly, pregnancy is not likely. The mild bleeding you are having is a normal finding with depo shots. This will subside on its own. You can do a urine test to rule out pregnancy.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
