Brown Discharge For 8 Months!
Posted: 05-30-05 21:00pm

I posted this a while ago on women's health and havent gotten a response. Maybe this is a better place to post.

I was on the depo shot for about a year and a half. The first year was great. I loved not having a period. Then I started spotting. And it never stopped! I figured it must be from the shot so I switched to the pill. I have been on the pill for 2 months now and I am still having the exact same dark brown discharge. It is so annoying because it isn't heavy enough to use a tampon but it is enough to ruin my underware! Any ideas? Please help, i'm open to anything!

Make a gyno appointment! That's the best thing to do!

I was on the pill for first month and on the 18th day of that month I had drown discharge. I called my doctor and I was told to throw that pack away and let my period come. Well I did just that and I was bleeding for 30 day. I then switched to the patch. I've had no problems. I've been on the patch for 3 months now but I did gain a little wait.... I hope this help you

Thanks for your suggestions.
'
well I called my dr and told her what was going on. She told me that it was regular to be irregular and that I should give it two more months. She said if I still am having the brown discharge then I should come in for an appointment. But now it seems like the discharge is getting even darker, almost black at times. I am so frustrated!

I would call the dr again and tell what's going on now. I would make an appointment asap. I think you need some piece of mind. Tell your dr that you are getting weak so she could squeeze you in. It's your body and you know how much you can take. That what I would do if I was in your situation. I hope everything works out for you. I'm praying for you.....

You could have a uterine cyst. It's really important that you bring this to your doctor's attention cause cysts can sometimes do a bit of damage to your organs.
