Hey I just had my 1st depo shot in august and I was fine but my I noticed my moods started changing but I thought I would be ohk I got my 2 shot in December 3 weeks later my gerd got wayy worse I'm very scared because I went from having control over my acid reflux and not taking any medication to taking 3 pills a day cause there is so much acid coming up I'm scared I new I should've never got back on the shot I don't know what to do if I get any bigger I'm going to start throwing up because of my gerd ...this happened to me before this a couple years back I just had my son and I was having minor symptoms of gerd I got on my first shot and the next 6 months was a freaking nightmare I was throwing up constant acid was coming to my throat I couldn't even swallow ....kind of like what's happening now ..I wish there was a way to reverse the shot ..I didn't know that's what caused it lasttime but now I know that it's causing now any advice??
I had my period 1st-6th December 2016 and got my first shot of depo on 7th.
I had unprotected sex during the week I got my shot (I know the Drs say you should use contraception during that week, I really did forget and was careless).
Ever since I got the shot I've been very emotional, I've had to pull over in my car just to cry over nothing. I've had terrible cramping, sometimes my lower abdomen feels quite hard, my boobs are sore..the list goes on!
However, I have had to negative pregnancy tests. Could the depo give a false negative? Or is this me being paranoid?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated x

I forgot to add that I have had no bleeding at all
When I was 40 I found out I was 14 weeks pregnant on the Depo shot. That's rare. I didn't know because I don't have periods with the Depo. As soon as I found out I was pregnant I started to miscarry. I am 41 and I am back on the Depo. My chances are lower now. I feel like that was a rare fluke. It's usually very affective. I am just fertile. I got pregnant 2 with condoms. Same person for 18 years. We have one child. I miscarry easily. So it's possible to get pregnant on Birth Control. I have heard the IUD is the best. However I don't like the risks that come with it.
When I got pregnant on the Depo my test was positive. The HCG hormone is still produced if you are actually pregnant. I didn't know until I was about 14 weeks due to the fact I did not have periods. However when I felt sick and so different I knew. I got a test and yes it happened. I also miscarried about 2 weeks after finding out. That's just me though. I have one child so even though it took me a while to test myself I was suspicious before I actually took a test. I just thought my weight gain of 14 pounds was the shot. Nope it was a baby. I didn't get as sick in the first trimester like I did at 31 with my son. It was Instant I knew I was pregnant before I even could test for pregnancy with my son. However the Dep oh shot was confusing and it literally took me quite some time to figure it out. But my spouse even said I think you're pregnant let's take a test because I just did not feel good. And it was positive so if you're pregnant it will test positive if you're not pregnant it will be negative. especially if you have taken 2 tests. I'd wait a bit take one more if it's negative it's usually the shot yhat can mimic pregnancy. Why I was confused. What happened to me is rare. Especially at age 39 almost 40.
i have been on depo for about 9 months now and until last week i was fine now im having symptoms of pregnancy. i took a pregnancy test and it was negative but i think it was because it was too soon. my cousin has had two pregnancies on depo, so if i am i wouldn't be surprised.
I have same issue
thank you so much i have an answer to whats going on in my body i thought it was the depo that had me feeling this way.
I realise this was a while back so we're you pregnant or just symptoms from the shot?
I have been on the depo shot for almost 6 months.. my time to get it renewed is the end of march 2017, I'm not going to get the shot anymore, but about 2 weeks ago I got light bleeding for just a few hours out of no where and I have not bleed since being on the shot. Now the last few days towards night time I get bad gas stomach pains and feeling nauseous. I have not thrown up yet, but I'm wondering if there is a chance of me being pregnant?
So I just got the Depo shot for the first time about a week ago and my boyfriend and I been having sex a lot, and lately I've been irritated and feeling bloated and kinda sick once in a while. I'm not sure if I am pregnant but I've been eating A LOT , Getting cravings, idk about weight gain but I've been very bloated. Do you think I could be pregnant or is it just the shot??
I'm assuming it's from the shot because you just started the shot, most of those symptoms had happened to me when I first started.
I am having the same exact symptoms this is scary i never throw up but sometimes feel the need too i have a very large appetite. I just want answers im only 19 and right now life isn't going in a good direction.
Please if you find or have found out anything let me know. Thanks
