It is very common and generally safe to experience mild spotting while taking Deviry (medroxyprogesterone acetate). I recommend completing the remaining two days of your prescription. Finishing the full course ensures that your hormone levels drop properly after you stop, which helps trigger a normal withdrawal bleed (your period), usually within 3 to 7 days after your last dose. Stopping early might lead to irregular bleeding. However, if the spotting becomes as heavy as a normal period, or if you experience severe pain, please contact your doctor.
