Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
After a depo injection, mild hormonal imbalance and irregular spotting is commonly seen. Most of the times, this spotting subsides on its own without any treatment in 3-4 weeks. You need to wait and watch out for any excessive bleeding.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
