What Causes Brown Vaginal Discharge And Nausea After Stopping Depo Shot?
I missed my depo shot on may 8th I m bad about getting them on time.... My boyfriend and I have been very sexual an not careful not long after I missed the shot after intercourse I had light spotting an its just been off and on this whole time. Now its a brown gooey discharge after the last two or three times. I m very fertile but he s been told he will never be able to have children. Is this an affect of stopping the depo or could I be pregnant. I m nauseated all day very sexually aroused when alone when I m not normally. Have been sleepy headaches crampy heartburn an just random spotting that is brown that happens after sex

Hi,
You need to check a pregnancy test to make sure you are not pregnant! The depo shot can take time to wear off and you could have some crazy spotting while on it or coming off of it. Don't ever believe someone cant get you pregnant.
Unless you see a semen analysis that says there are no sperm (on more than one) then maybe you can relax. If you pregnancy test is negative you need to use condoms and get in to see your doctor.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
