Hi and thank you so much for this query.
I am sorry to hear about what you have been experiencing since stopping depo.
Spotting after stopping depo is not uncommon. However, these symptoms also suggest early pregnancy. The best way forward is to do a rapid pregnancy test and find out what the answer is. Depending on the results, an personalised advice would be tailored to you.
I hope you find this helpful. I wish you well. Please, feel free to ask more questions if need be.
