General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

Vaginal spotting is due to hormonal side effect of Medroxyprogesterone acetate. Self-use of oral tablets intermittently may also be the contributory factor for the spotting.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Purva Patel
