Was Taking Depo Shot. No Periods After Stopping The Shot, Brown Discharge. Can I Still Ovulate?
Hi I was on depo for about 4 years on and off.. Well I got off of it may 2012 and I still haven't had a period and I told my dr and he did blood work and he said everything was normal.. I'm not sure if that meant that I can still ovulate or not but I have been having unprotected sex. Well today after I urinated I wiping some brown stuff? Could you possibly tell me what's going on

hi,
You should get your hormonal assay done. Irregular use of Depo shots for 4 years might have caused a hormonal imbalance,leading to your present condition.
I don't think, one can ovulate without getting menses
Ovulation study(USG test) will throw some light on ovarian function.
Please consult an Endocrinologist& Gynecologist for proper guidance.
Thanks.
