Dark Period on the Depo Needle - old blood or what? Posted: 09-30-07 23:38pm
Hey, I have not had my period for around a
year and a half because i have been on the
Depo Needle. i was due for another shot on
the 12th of september but idecided to go
off it, i just got my period today and its
really dark like nearly black, i think its
because its all built up so its old blood
but today i feel really weak i have no
energy and had a really bad headache so
this dark blodd really worried me, any
ideas...?

No period built up when you were on Depo.
You would have died from it rotting and
eating your uterus. Getting off of Depo
simply causes odd things to happen.
If you are concerned, please call your
gynocologist!

If it is really nasty and smells (even
with your clothes on), that could be a
sign of an infection or another internal
problem.
Dark colored blood is normal for old
blood, and sometimes happens during our
period. And depo does cause odd things to
happen.
