Clear Discharge On Arm From Depo Shot
Posted: 06-20-05 19:10pm

I got my birth control shot (depo) 3 days ago, as scheduled. This is my fourth shot, but i'm having problems.

The spot where I got my shot is practically gone. There is still a tiny lump, which I always get with the shot. I squeezed it today, thinking it was a pimple, and it oozed out a small amount of clear liquid.

Does this mean the shot get done in the place where it should have? Am I protected?

Have you tried to call and ask your doc for some advice or perhaps another doc or possibly planned parenthood,
sincerely,

I don't have a primary doctor, considering I just lost my medical and am unemployed. Planned parenthood basically said "i don't know," and couldn't be of much help.

Any ideas, anybody?

Since just a small amount came out I doubt all the medcine that was injected came out so a lot is still probably in you so you are most likely protected just fine. Maybe not all of in went into the blood stream so you had a little leakage, or maybe its just body (water) fluids from your arm which is what you saw come out. Just my advice, best of luck : )
