Cycle Question

This topic may have been covered before but I didn't see it anytime recently. I am on the depo shot to control bleeding. Normally I never have a period. Since January I have lost 50 pounds and started (slowly) exercising daily. I am now starting to spot. Has anyone else had this experience? Is it normal?

    I am not on Depo or any method of BC because I don't like the side effects it has on me, but I had not had a period in over 2 years and then I started exercising hardcore and started spotting and getting all the PMS symptoms like cramping and back pain. So I am hoping it is coming back!

    like the person above me, I am not on depo or such but i have had exercise induced spotting once before after months of missed periods and it turned out to be the beginning of a regular cycle.
