Hello ma'am and welcome.
No at times, it can bleed and some medicine can leak out, this is not an issue. As for the symptoms you are experiencing they could all be side effects of the depo shot and is considered perfectly normal.
But if at all you cannot tolerate the side effects then please do report to your doctor for an elaborate evaluation and also either medications to suppress the side effects or find another suitable substitute.
Best wishes.
