Hello girls,

I'm on the depo shot and for the 1st two and a half months didn't cycle.

I then did a milk thistle cleanse for one week.

I've just had some spotting a couple of days ago which is really unusual, I haven't had any bleeding since I went on the shot in Dec 2010.

Have contacted my surergy and the nurse isn't too worried although told me to keep an eye on if I have abdominal pain.

I'm sure it's the herbs etc I'm taking that has caused this.

Anyway, what I'm planning for this month is to take the herbs as though I have a cycle, and I'm using day 1 to be when I had my bleeding, which was 4 & a half weeks after my last shot if that helps.

I know people say the herbs don't effect your birth control but I'm now concerned that it might. Bit of a coincedence.

With the spotting I had bad PMS that day, bad skin, tearful, had how with the bf in the morning.

Was kind of a relief to have a "Period" though, felt like was getting rid of a hormone build up.

Don't know if any of this helps, but I dope it might in some way
