Hi. My story is a little weird. I started the depo provera shot at the end of April. This was my first shot. It wasn't during my period. I was unaware that I was supposed to use a back of method of contraception for 7 days because I didn't get it during my period. My doctor didn't tell me. During the first week I had unprotected sex with my partner. I didn't have any symptoms in May from depo. During June and July I had nausea so bad that I couldn't even stand the smell or food and I was always tired. But I just associated that with the shot. I was due for my next shot at the end of July but I didn't get it because I read about all the horror stories from depo and even though I had no symptoms the first month. I didn't want to risk it. Now it's august and I'm beginning to get a stomach. Please note, I am a tiny girl! I weigh about 100 pounds. Even my family has notice my stomach but it's only noticeable when I sit. I've also recently had a lot of lower back pain, hip pain, pressure in my abdomen, and like one day I was peeing a lot. (but nothing that I thought was serious). I also had some brown discharge too but only for a week and I only had to wear panty liners. I read the sometimes you get brown discharge because your uterus is stretching. I'm wasn't really concerned until I notice my stomach was growing after the depo shot. Am I being paranoid or should I really take a pregnancy test?
