HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

It can take months, for some persons , for cycles to return to normal after using the depo injection.

The brown discharge is old blood an may indicate that your cycles are returning.

If you remain concerned then you can consider visiting your doctor for an assessment

I hope this helps
