Why Do I Start Spotting While Doing Crunches After Stopping Of Depo Shot ?

Hi, I am 29yrs old, weight approx 130 pounds. I was on depo shot for 11 yrs and came off about seven months ago. Three weeks ago I stared working out and now i have noticed after doing crunches I would start spotting. Does this have anything to do with me coming off the shot or I m i working out to hard?

Welcome to Healthcare Magic
In certain exercise regimes which involve excessive stretching the hymen can tear and cause spotting. Not to worry. It is fairly common in athletes, aerobics, gymnasts. Also the Depot can cause irregular spotting sometimes. You can consult your Gynaecologist to find the cause and find an appropriate solution.
