Discharge while on depo provera?
I just started depo on Oct 24th and took my nuva ring out on Nov 4. Ever since I took out my nuva ring out I've been having a clearish discharge everyday. I literally have to wear a panty liner everyday because of it. When I took out my nuva ring I never did get my period but I know it's common to not get one on depo, I didn't think it would be that soon. I also have this tight feeling around my lower abdomen. It's even more uncomfortable when I'm on my stomach.
Are these all side effects of depo or could I be pregnant?!?
Also, I've been extremely moody. I find that I'm more upset about things than what I would normally be. I know mood changes can be due to being on depo.
Occasionally I will get these small cramping like pains in the lower abdomen and in my back.
Should I take a home pregnancy test just to be safe? My boyfriend lives an hour away so I only see him about once a week; but each time I see him we have sex at least 2 times per visit and each time is unprotected.

I've been on Depo the past 7 years (I'm quitting it 2 weeks! so excited!) and I've had clear discharge like that everyday too. Do not worry. It is all Depos fault trust me. My side effects with depo were/are:
1) Weight Gain (30 pounds! 2 pant sizes and 1 shirt size!)
2) I never developed breasts (I started Depo right after my period started so I never produced the hormones to grow breasts)
3) Night Sweats
4) Mood swings (anger, crying are the most common)
5) Clear discharge everyday
6) brown discharge about 1-2 days a month
7) abdominal pain or cramping feeling
8) back pain in my lower back and neck
9) Hot flashes
10) nausea
11) My hair has been thinning a little
12) Headaches

Do not take a pregnancy test while on Depo, it will give you the wrong answer. It will say you are not pregnant weather you are or not.
MY MOST IMPORTANT ADVICE TO YOU IS GET OFF OF DEPO IT IS POISON I'M STARTING TO FEAR FOR MY LIFE BECAUSE OF IT
