Hi,
I understand your query & concern.
The depot shot for contraception is a hormone - It has a common side effect & spotting of blood may be seen to start with-- specially for first few months.
Please don't worry.Afterwords it will disappear to set a regular menstruation/ no menses for few months.
Thanks
