I got the Depo shot closing month on the 26th. Over the past week or so I've be noticing a brown discharge, I thought that be my breakthrough bleeding. Then yesterday evening I had red blood, which be really light. I wore a wad to bed and there be nothing on it adjectives day. Today I didn't enjoy any discharge until about 5:30 this evening, when the bleeding come back. It's not solid at all, and it looks close to it has some mucous contained by it. Is the red blood my period or only breakthrough? My period isn't due until the 22/23 of December. Thanks.
Answers: Technically it's considered breakthrough bleeding. The shot inhibits the formation of ovum, as powerfully as thinning your uterine lining, so any bleeding you hold is breaking through the perpetual chemical barrier established by the shot (hence the permanent status "breakthrough bleeding").
It is often moderately common to enjoy this and sometimes for it to become quite problematic (as contained by nearly constant). I had to stop using the shot after nearly 3 years because of constant bleeding. I hope you don't own this problem.
i'm so glad i'm a dude
